But aw, ACOTAR. I don't think I ever want to read it. Heard such bad things. And that Rhys is a total asshole and not a likeable person at all :p but then again, so many seems to love him, and ugh. Not a book for me, hah :D Which is depressing, because I wanted to love it too. Sigh. Maybe I will :) Anyway. I'm glad you liked it so much sweetie. <3Carina Olsenhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/10962924929801205597noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4541582388948046827.post-22770163463784691582015-06-28T22:47:09.482+02:002015-06-28T22:47:09.482+02:00Thank you Rachel!

Although 4 stars is a good rating, I do understand why you didn't connect with Feyre that much especially if you thought their development went a little too fast. the last 30% really was the best for me, too!

I did find myself wondering when she fell so head over heels in love with Tamlin to go to Under the Mountain for him.
