A Court of Mist and Fury

3.3.21 update: I forgot how fucking fantastic this book is. I think ACOFAS ruined my memories of just how good this book is. I'm in awe. My mind is in pieces. My thoughts are unfathomable. I am going to need a minute to process everything. Original Review from 5.15.16: 5+/5 stars I like to start of this review by saying that I hate [a:Sarah J. Maas 3433047 Sarah J. Maas https://images.gr-assets.com/authors/1582137198p2/3433047.jpg] I hate her books. I hate how she manages to flawlessly develop her characters. I hate how she always rips my heart out of my chest and crushes, burns, destroys it. And I especially hate how she only releases like two books a year. Stop it Sarah. I hate you. Obviously, I'm joking. At least I think I am. It's going to have to depend on how [b:Empire of Storms 28260587 Empire of Storms (Throne of Glass, #5) Sarah J. Maas https://i.gr-assets.com/images/S/compressed.photo.goodreads.com/books/1463107108l/28260587.SY75.jpg 25272004] ends and if she tears my heart in half there too. In all reality, Sarah J. Maas is one of my all time favorite authors. And this book just adds to the reasons why. This book is by far one of my favorites of the entire year, of my entire life, and I am craving more. I remember when I read [b:A Court of Thorns and Roses 16096824 A Court of Thorns and Roses (A Court of Thorns and Roses, #1) Sarah J. Maas https://i.gr-assets.com/images/S/compressed.photo.goodreads.com/books/1546406962l/16096824.SY75.jpg 21905102] last September that I couldn't stand Rhysand. I thought he was arrogant and unrelatable. I wasn't even wrong, but I was in a whole different universe. He is arrogant, I was right about that, but he's sweet adn caring and perfect and another reason why I hate Sarah. I fall in love with her characters too easily. Also another reason why I hate SJM, she isn't afraid to branch out with her books even if her ideas are insane. She always makes it work. I mean, compare [b:Throne of Glass 7896527 Throne of Glass (Throne of Glass, #1) Sarah J. Maas https://i.gr-assets.com/images/S/compressed.photo.goodreads.com/books/1495278054l/7896527.SY75.jpg 11138426] with [b:Queen of Shadows 18006496 Queen of Shadows (Throne of Glass, #4) Sarah J. Maas https://i.gr-assets.com/images/S/compressed.photo.goodreads.com/books/1441230104l/18006496.SY75.jpg 25272067], and you get two completely different stories, and compare ACOTAR with ACOMAF, the exact same thing. I can't even gather my thoughts right now to write an honest review. I'll work on it tomorrow after I sleep on it. If you are reading this Sarah, then there is a way to buy my love. I want copies of Empire of Storms and ACOTAR #3 in my hands yesterday. Maybe I'll reconsider.
