Synopsis

The goal of this book is to give the reader a look at life after Hybern’s war and the preparations for the Winter Solstice. Feyre is busy with High Lady duties while Rhys is busy with enforcing the Illyrian armies to train women soldiers. Elain is also shown acclimating to the Night Court by tending to a garden and other household duties with Nuala and Cerridwen while Nesta has completely closed herself off.

Review

Plot – This novella is definitely more lighthearted than the main books in the series, which was a nice change of pace. Crazy events didn’t happen but the book still went at a good pace to keep you reading. I think it was a good way to tide fans over until the new book is released.

Writing – I like how you get different POV’s in this book. They’re marked clearly and I like having the ability to get a glimpse inside other character’s heads besides Feyre. Some of the overused phrases I have mentioned in my “A Court of Wings and Ruin” review definitely make their appearance again but since it’s so short, they’re not used quite as often.

I found this novella and enjoyable read and the foreshadowing for what is to come. I hope the series is continued and I can’t wait for the next book!
