About this deal

ACOMAF - This is probably my second favorite book of the entire series. Obviously moved away from the Beauty and the Beast similarities. I appreciate everything Rhys did for Feyre, and let her take her own time and let her make her own choices. I think he fits her personality much better than Tamlin ever would have. I just thought it was weird that Tamlin felt so strongly about her to sell out her family. The characters the author created were so complex and human-like (well, fae-like, I don’t know), you can’t help but fall in love with them. There were no controlling male main characters you so often see in books dominating over the female main character and passed off as romantic. The males characters, while dominant, never ever tried to control the female characters or make decisions for them. It was one of the biggest selling points of this series for me. Also, the female characters were just as powerful, if not more, than the male characters.

How is it not only OK but empowering to be the toxic one in a relationship if you are a woman?! I thought the idea behind feminism is equal rights, mutual respect. Matriarchy is equally as bad as patriarchy - just as women want and deserve respect, so do men.

Sarah J. Maas's sexy, richly imagined Court of Thorns and Roses series continues with the journey of Feyre's fiery sister, Nesta.

I ended this series with tears in my eyes. Happy ones, for a change. There’s never been a fantasy series where I could think of a more perfect ending than this one. There were plenty of loose ends but they were stories waiting to be finished rather than sloppy writing. I know that the last of my favorite characters will find happiness (though I would LOVE to read another novella(s) on it). We get a glimpse of her true self after the Suriel spills the tea, when she (with Helion's power and the Suriel's knowledge) helps Rhys start healing but treats him like he was nothing, leaving him literally in the mud, although he had just been tortured, almost died, and was far from healing, because he kept 'things' from her. Also can we mention how throughout ACOSF there was no chemistry whatsoever between Az and Gwyn and it was only mentioned after Rhysand said no. Proving yet again that Az wanted Elain not Gwyn.

The author's idea of empowering women is by making them into bullies, and men into doormats. The aim seems to be getting to the top and then forgetting who helped you get there. Please be aware that the delivery time frame may vary according to the area of delivery - the approximate delivery time is usually between 1-2 business days.

Problems with your delivery

Nesta is a proper bully, she is the definition of selfishness and arrogance - there is no excuse for that, no matter what trauma she suffered. Once again, think of the Inner Circle and what they went through for centuries (Nesta is only in her early twenties) and how considerate and caring they are. After I read the first book, I got really excited. It was easy to read, really well-written, had adorable characters, and even a good plot. I think it is good choice if you want to read romantic fantasies. (It’s still my favorite series today.) Since then, I have read a lot more regularly and faster. This series was one of the main reasons I started to love reading so much. Not to mention that you have all these High Lords that lived for hundreds of years, fought wars, are well versed in strategy and court intrigues, but need a 19-20 year old girl to save them. Delivery with Standard Australia Post usually happens within 2-10 business days from time of dispatch. Please be aware that the delivery time frame may vary according to the area of delivery and due to various reasons, the delivery may take longer than the original estimated timeframe. When nineteen-year-old Feyre kills a wolf in the woods, a beast-like creature arrives to demand retribution for it. Dragged to a treacherous magical land she only knows about from legends, Feyre discovers that her captor is not an animal, but Tamlin-one of the lethal, immortal faeries who once ruled their world.
