Title: A Court of Wings and Ruin

Genre: New Adult Fantasy

Publisher: Bloomsbury Publishing

Release Date: May 2nd, 2017

Blurb: Feyre has returned to the Spring Court, determined to gather information on Tamlin's actions and learn what she can about the invading king threatening to bring her land to its knees. But to do so she must play a deadly game of deceit. One slip could bring doom not only for Feyre, but for everything-and everyone-she holds dear.

As war bears down upon them all, Feyre endeavors to take her place amongst the High Fae of the land, balancing her struggle to master her powers-both magical and political-and her love for her court and family. Amidst these struggles, Feyre and Rhysand must decide whom to trust amongst the cunning and lethal High Lords and hunt for allies in unexpected places.

My Thoughts: I read this book when it first came out but apparently I forgot everything that happened in this book over the years. It was nice to read it with fresh eyes. So much happened in this book. The war started in earnest and yeah that was fun. Nesta and Elain were dealing with what happened to them when they were turned into High Fae by the Cauldron at Hybern's hands. Feyre returned briefly to the Spring Court at the beginning of the book to basically spy and turn Tamlin's army against him. Feyre made bargains with Bryaxis and the Carver to fight for them when the time came while Rhys secretly made a bargain with the Weaver to fight for them. I'm glad though that Ianthe finally got what she deserved. I also didn't see sweet Elain and feisty Nesta being the ones to actually kill the King of Hybern.  

I really enjoyed this book. I'm looking forward to rereading the next two books in the series. I would have finished this book faster but I got distracted by Tears of the Kingdom. That's my bad but I don't see the obsession waning anytime soon.
