Sarah J. Maas takes everything you loved about the first book and turns it up a notch, delivering a sequel that is darker, richer, and even more breathtaking. The emotional depth and stunning storytelling left me absolutely hooked—this is a five-star read you won't be able to put down. We dive back in with Feyre as she struggles to heal from everything she endured Under the Mountain. The suffocating atmosphere of the Spring Court is palpable, but once Feyre is swept into the dazzling world of the Night Court and Rhysand’s intricate web of politics, the story truly comes alive. Watching Feyre transform from a broken survivor into a fierce, empowered heroine is nothing short of inspiring—her journey is one of the most powerful character arcs I’ve read in fantasy. The slow-burn romance between Rhysand and Feyre is absolutely electric. Their relationship is built on mutual respect, trust, and a deep understanding that makes every moment between them sizzle with chemistry. Rhysand is the kind of love interest who lifts Feyre up, supports her healing, and treats her as his equal in every way. Their dynamic is everything I want in a fantasy romance—raw, real, and utterly swoon-worthy. Just when you think you can catch your breath, Maas throws in new threats and layers of intrigue that keep the tension sky-high. The world-building is lush and immersive, the characters unforgettable, and the stakes feel impossibly high. This book is a masterclass in dark fantasy and romance, and it will leave you desperate for more. If you love stories that blend heart-pounding danger with unforgettable passion, you need to read *A Court of Mist and Fury* right now. Review: Where A Court of Thorns and Roses was a love story about a girl risking all to save her ... - A Court of Thorns and Roses was one of my top books of 2015 - possibly even my number one. I have been (not-so-patiently) waiting on A Court of Mist and Fury literally since book one ended and obviously preordered a copy as soon as I could! Upon receiving it in the mail, I quickly started reading but didn't want to read it too quickly. This is one of those books you also want to savor! Especially knowing that I'll have to wait an entire year for the final book in the series. Before I jump into this review, let me say that I do not think Sarah J. Maas can do no wrong. I read the first two books in her Throne of Glass series before giving up on that one. But THIS series... In this series she can do no wrong because every single word of this book was perfection. This book picks up where the first left off, with Feyre, Tamlin, and Lucien back at the Spring Court working on getting the Court back to its former glory. With all that she has been through, Feyre has been left a shell of her former self. Unfortunately, everyone seems to be more worried about keeping up appearances than making sure their Cursebreaker has what she needs to heal and live with her actions. Where A Court of Thorns and Roses was a love story about a girl risking all to save her Love, A Court of Mist and Fury is a story about a girl learning to respect herself, finding out who she really is after a huge trauma, with a love story weaved in. Feyre's character growth in this novel was incredible. I said in my review of ACOTAR that she was an unlikable character who I came to really love. Now I can honestly say that Feyre is an amazing, strong female character and the kind of role model I wish teens could read more about (as opposed to the weak female characters who allow a man to define them). As I'm sure you have probably gathered, in this book Rhysand gives Tamlin a run for his money. As the synopsis says, Rhys has not forgotten the bargain he made with Feyre under the mountain and he plans to make good on it. While I did like Tamlin in the first book, I have made it abundantly clear over the last year that I did not know enough about Rhys to choose a "team" and would have to wait until the next book was released to decide. I can now say I am firmly #TeamRhysand at this point and I don't see that changing. Rest assured, there is no love triangle in this book whatsoever, which is a huge relief considering that's what most YA fiction gravitates towards. I actually loved almost every character in this book, whether I loved them because they were so perfectly wonderful or horrible. The villains are just as terrible as they should be (although Amarantha is going to be damn hard to beat) and the new characters that Feyre aligns herself with grew on me as the story progressed. Surprisingly, I came to like Nesta much more than Elain, which is the exact opposite of how I felt about them in A Court of Thorns and Roses. One of my favorite things about A Court of Mist and Fury (and honestly, there are so many) was the world building. In book one, we only got to see the Spring Court, Under the Mountain, and the human realm. This time we I got to travel with Feyre all over Prythian and, obviously, my favorite was the Night Court, which was anything but what I expected! Sarah J. Maas' beautiful writing style contributes so much to the love I have for this gorgeous world. I think a lot of other authors would have a really hard time making me care as much as I care about every single location Feyre visits. I'll admit, I usually skim when I get to descriptions of cities and such, but here I took my time to take in every single word on the page. And then there's the story. Oh, the incredible, beautiful, heart-wrenching story. I loved every single agonizing minute of it. As I've already said, this book is about Feyre discovering who she is after Under the Mountain and she is stronger than anyone realized. There are multiple conflicts for her to deal with - mentally, in her personal relationships, and with a potential war brewing. The journey this book takes over 600+ pages is brutal and extraordinary and heart breaking and I adored it. I was actually a little worried that over 600 pages would be too much, that the story would get bogged down or that it would lag, but it didn't. There wasn't non-stop action, but everything that happened was relevant and I couldn't name anything that served only as filler. Something to definitely keep in mind is that this book has significantly more sexual content than the first, but I'm totally okay with that. As a 28 year old lover of YA, I was thrilled for the authenticity this little bit of extra explicitness brought to this story. I mean, when characters are talking about marriage and are fighting wars, it's not out of the question that they're probably going to be having more adult relationships. But I do think it's important to point out for those readers who perhaps don't want to read steamier scenes. (I'm sure you could easily skip past them.) As you can probably tell, I loved this book. I don't have a single bad thing to say about it, which is unusual for me, even when I rate a book five stars. I loved Feyre, I loved Rhysand, and I loved their constant bantering back and forth. I loved that Feyre learned to respect herself. I loved the gorgeous writing and world building and storytelling. I honestly cannot go on without becoming a total fangirl so instead I'll leave you with what I have dubbed Rhysand's theme song (you're welcome): [...]

One of those books I wish I could read again for the first time
“To the stars who listen—and the dreams that are answered.” I think ACOTAR is the perfect first book but I think ACOMAF is probably the best book in the series. It is my absolute favorite for so many reasons. Maas does this amazing job of showcasing just how much Under the Mountain impacted Feyre. We have her clearly struggling with some serious PTSD... and Tamlin... well.. per the norm is oblivious. Ianthe, a new character, and a Priestess becomes an annoyance. Lucien... well he seems less like a friend and more like Tamlin's lackey. I think it's all these things... and watching Feyre beg to be let in and be a part of things that just makes you hate all of them. However, it's okay because all of this causes Rhys to enter the narrative in the most dramatic way humanly possible. We then get her visits which are a requirement of the bargain she made. Rhys begins to show us a side we didn't get before and quickly works his way into the reader's heart. Especially with the stark contrast to Tamlin in this one. We get the back and forth between Night Court and Spring Court, a dramatic shift for Feyre, and then an intense narrative. One in which romance is important, but like now we have the threat of war from Hybern. I adore this book because I think it has amazing character development and even shows us parts of characters we were blind to before. Feyre slowly goes from this broken creature to this powerful Fae. It's a beautiful transition to watch happen. Not to mention the found family vibes in this one. I think Rhys has a court which works so well together and one in which Feyre easily fits in. I have to say the Night Court is probably my favorite part of this story. Even as a reread this book had me in my feels. It turns out it was almost like reading it again for the first time. Maas really knows how to play on the emotions and she has the uncanny ability to hold it all until the end. I think this one is probably one of my favorites though because we get a lot of big reveals throughout and then the end is just this masterpiece where you are constantly ready to scream, cry, laugh and throw things. I think this one is high on my list of books I wish I could read for the first time again. I think it has all the elements you want in a romantasy.

I loved this book since the first time i read it in ebook format, so i decided to buy the physical one to have on my shelf and oh my god, what a marvelous cover, the colors are so vibrant, so much prettier than the original one, the second volume is definitely the best of the trilogy. The font and material are also top notch, loved it ❤️

A Court of Mist and Fury es, sin duda, uno de esos libros que marcan un antes y un después para quienes aman la fantasía. Es la segunda parte de la saga Una corte de rosas y espinas, y continúa la historia de Feyre, quien ahora debe cumplir el trato que hizo con el High Lord Rhysand. A través de esta entrega, vemos cómo evoluciona su relación con él y cómo ambos van revelando sus verdaderas emociones y heridas. Sarah J. Maas expande de manera brillante el mundo de Prythian, mostrándonos su compleja estructura política, sus distintas cortes y una profundidad emocional que va mucho más allá del romance. Además, este libro nos permite conocer mejor a los personajes, entender sus motivaciones y conectar con ellos de una forma más intensa. Para mí, es una de esas sagas imprescindibles: combina a la perfección aventura, romance, misterio e intriga política. Fue una de las primeras que me enganchó al género de la fantasía… y desde entonces, no he podido dejarlo. Siempre la recomiendo, porque tiene de todo y consigue hacerte sentir parte de ese mundo mágico y salvaje.
