She thinks nothing of slaughtering a wolf to capture its prey. But, like all mortals, she fears what lingers beyond the forest. And she will learn that taking the life of a magical creature come at a high price...
Imprisoned in an enchanted court in her enemy's kingdom, Feyre is free to roam but forbidden to escape. Her captors body bares the scars of fighting, and his face is always masked - but his piercing stare draws her even closer.
Feyra has just one goal on her mind...to stay alive. But when a hunt to survive goes drastically wrong, she has to make a decision.
Be killed, as well as her family. Or go and live the treacherous fae over the wall.
As Fayre tries to adapt to new life, she can't help but think that there is more than meets the eye with the High Lords, Tamlin and Lucien of the Spring court.
As something grows between them all, something far worse is coming. Something, someone, more powerful than any of them can face...except one.
Given a series of challenges, Feyre must determine her life, her strength and most of all, her love, for the good of the Prythian land and her home.
A Court of Thorns and Roses by Sarah J. Maas, is the first within the 'Court of Thorns and Roses' series and I absolutely loved it.
Now, I'll be honest. At first I really didn't understand what the hype was about this series and trod carefully when I went into the book, but let me tell you something. I did not think I would love it as much as I did.
It's jam packed with drama, suspense, romance, hatred - it's got everything a YA novel needs and so much more. The characters, the world building, everything about it is just wonderful. Even though it nearly gave me a cardiac arrest towards the end with everything that was happening, it was fast paced and really thought out.
If you need a new series to read this year, then by all means pick this one up and give it a go, you will not be disappointed.
I actually read this as part of a buddy read with the lovely Jess from Make Me Shakespeare and over the past few months I have gained a wonderful new friend, she's the most loveliest girl on the planet!
I will be giving this book 10 out of 10
