Review: A Court of Wings and Ruin

A Court of Wings and Ruin by Sarah J. Maas
My rating: 4 of 5 stars

A Court of Wings and Ruin by Sarah J Maas was probably my favorite book in the series. This book was the most interesting and had the most action in my opinion. The writing was good and the author stepped away from tropes quite a bit in this book. I was very happy about that.

I loved the love story that develops in the book and I also like that Sarah talks about abuse in the book. A lot happens to Feyre and with a lot of YA books have a VERY abusive love interest and they never address it and it leaves girls to fall in love with the the shitty man that treats you like shit, but Sarah doesn't let that happen in this book. I really commend Sarah for doing this. This will teach girls that it's okay to not let yourself be treated that way.

I did believe that the story kind of lagged in the middle of the book. I had to push myself to keep going and get to the end of the book. I was a little disappointed in that aspect. Also Feyres sisters DROVE ME NUTS. I would be COMPLETELY okay if Sarah had just dropped those characters completely. I know why she had them in the book but man it was difficult.

I definitely recommend this book over the other two in the series, but you have to read those to make sense of this book. This is a pretty decent series and it is getting better as it goes on so I am interested to see what happens in the next book.
