Morena’s Reviews > A Court of Mist and Fury > Status Update

I don't know where to start with my thoughts. Firstly, I had to resign myself that the first book is near irrelevant and probably didn't need to happen in context of this one. Secondly, while I started to enjoy it a bit more during the middle, the book honestly turned into smut, and not the sexy kind. And the number of references to Feyre's boobs had me rethinking whether this novel was written by a man.

I've gone through the first part feeling intrigued, excited, but also incredibly heartbroken and entirely manipulated. Firstly, there is not a character more mistreated than Tamlin, but Lucien is close behind. Everything that was good about them vanished or subverted to the point that it's comical. Secondly, since when did Rhys turn into the knight in shining armor? Where is the morally grey Fae we were promised?
