A Court Of Frost And Starlight by Sarah J. Maas













Started: 24.1.26

Finished (skipped): 24.1.26


Paperback


Somewhat surprisingly, I didn't really enjoy this book, to the point that I skipped the second half of it. I'd read up to the end of Chapter 14 but I was finding it a bit boring, if I'm honest. This was more like a novella, and not a lot was happening. I read some reviews, a lot of which likened it to a Hallmark Christmas Special - it mainly revolved around the 'inner circle' buying gifts for each other for the Winter Solstice. There was still tension between Nesta and Cassian (and everyone, really). Feyre opened up an art studio, and Rhysand bought her an estate so that she could build them a bigger house. Mor was preparing to travel to the continent. Everyone was still recovering from the war and learning how to live with the fragile peace that had been achieved. It was really just a bit of a bridging book to the next one, and it made me think that it might be a good place to take a break. I'd intended to go straight into A Court Of Silver Flames, but as there may be a book 6 release in 2026, I think I might pause here and pick up book 5 later in the year. I've enjoyed the first three books, but I think I was starting to get a bit of 'fantasy fatigue' and I feel like I want to read something completely different next.
