A Court of Frost and Starlight by Sarah J. Maas

Along the journey of re-reading the ACOTAR series, I was in a horrific car accident and broke my hand, so things will be a little slow for me and formatted differently.

So, re-reading ACOFAS have to say it is still not my favorite in the series. After reading it for the second time it is much more tolerable and wasn't too angry about having to re-read it in this journey. It really made me really want a book in Lucien's POV and his time spent away on his trip to find the cursed queen, and now his journey with Vassa and Jurien. Feel like there is a lot there that can be explored and brought to light. Very interested in seeing what will happen in the next few books. Hate that he's in the group of Misfits or whatever they call themselves, but it makes sense for his character and such.

Love how it bounces between the different characters every chapter...it gives insight to how their own books would be if it followed them. Like the next one is Silver Flames so it's interesting to see how Cassian and Nesta's scenes culminated in that. Also just want to point out how much I've begun to despise Elain and that she doesn't do literally anything. There is nothing that she does that brings anything into the story. That being said, I also hated Nesta so maybe when a book comes out that mainly focuses on he, maybe that will change.

Miracle Mountain (Ellie Jordan, Ghost Trapper #20) by J.L Bryan

During the gold rush, prospectors came to Miracle Mountain in northern Georgia, looking for their fortune in the local waterways. Legend tells of a mysterious event, of a girl falling to her death from the local waterfall and miraculously coming back to life the next day. Tourists now come to this legendary location looking for a miracle of their own. Nearby is a rustic historical inn that welcomes visitors looking for their own miracle and a glimpse of the local ghost Freija. Ellie and her team are called in to help the owners get rid of the malevolent spirits that are scaring away business. I love this entire book; I swear every time it gets scarier as the series goes on! Ellie and Jordan come to the Highwater Inn to help rid of the malevolent ghosts but are told to steer clear of the friendly welcoming ones. The owner Willow, who claims to be a spiritualist, is trying to contact the dead and even goes as far as to welcome them into the inn. Wi...

A Court of Silver Flames by Sarah J. Maas

Absolutely, hands down, my favorite book in the series. The entire evolution of the story is incredible. Thank gosh it was broken down into three parts because this bitch wouldn't be able to handle it otherwise. LOVE the evolution of Nesta beginning to live and love herself, despite the darkness she's caused and witnessed. That she finds her reason for being and fights to retain it and fights to be a better version of herself constantly. Nesta finding her love in music and dancing, is so beautifully written. The house being sentient being, even capable of complex emotion and understanding, is so beautiful. It gives Nesta the nurturing, respect, and love that her mother never gave her. Which while healing is something she desperately needs especially because her mother was so absolutely awful to her. The addition of Emerie and Gwyn are the perfect characters to add and further broaden the family in the ACOTAR universe. ...
