A Court of Mist and Fury by Sarah J Maas

A Court of Mist and Fury (Court of Thorns and Roses, #2)

by Sarah J. Maas

The # 1 New York Times bestselling sequel to Sarah J. Maas' spellbinding A Court of Thorns and Roses.

Feyre survived Amarantha's clutches to return to the Spring Court--but at a steep cost. Though she now has the powers of the High Fae, her heart remains human, and it can't forget the terrible deeds she performed to save Tamlin’s people.

Nor has Feyre forgotten her bargain with Rhysand, High Lord of the feared Night Court. As Feyre navigates its dark web of politics, passion, and dazzling power, a greater evil looms--and she might be key to stopping it. But only if she can harness her harrowing gifts, heal her fractured soul, and decide how she wishes to shape her future--and the future of a world cleaved in two.

With more than a million copies sold of her beloved Throne of Glass series, Sarah J. Maas's masterful storytelling brings this second book in her seductive and action-packed series to new heights.

Nov 2019 Update:
I'll keep.my old review, but this was a lot better than I remembered. While I still didn't love the characters decisions, on re-read they made more sense. Feyre is never gonna be a favorite character of mine, but Rhysand makes up for her.

If I could give half stars, this would be 2.5 stars. I liked it marginally less than the first book, because there were just too many times I was rolling my eyes at every characters decisions.

I said it in my first review, that I feel like I've read about Feyre getting a lot of shit for her what she chooses to do in these books, but come on, everyone in this series makes poor choices. It's not just her. Let's be super honest about that, it is NOT just Feyre. Rhys makes terrible choices, Tamlin...well Tamlin's a forced narrative by the author, but he makes poor choices. None of it's smart.

And still, it was a fun read. I got through it quickly and didn't mind it at all. Sure I was eyerolling, but I was also laughing at times, smiling a lot, and genuinely interested in the story. So good on SJM for that.

Still not getting to the 3 star mark though due to all the stupidity.
