I loved this book, I actually read this book before any of Sarah J. Maas's other work and it made me look into A Court of Thorns and Roses and the Throne of Glass series. I could not put it down with the unforgettable characters, exciting romance, and page-turning suspense. This book is one that will have you crying if you're the emotional sort.. which I am. ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ star rating for this book, and I'm excited for the rest of the story!
