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.    
    That being said, can we talk about the Valkyrie?! The badass group of women banding together to never again be victims to the terrible things that they have been victims of. Even with the priestesses joining in training to balance them between their work and training, they gain more inner strength. Which leads to the blood rite with the ultimate bad bitch group, Emerie, Gwyn, and Nesta. Can't describe how much I love them and their connection. Plus, the ending scene with Nesta drawing the line in the sand and defending those she loves to the end. The Dread Trove, another perfect addition, was amazing. The queen having the crown, the kelpie and Nesta and the mask, along with the harp in the prison. Then Nesta creating her own Dread Trove when she Made the weapons in the blacksmiths shop. Chef Kisses, amazing. Still can't stand Elain. A Wallflower who does nothing!
    Now for Cassian and Nesta...I love them. The natural evolution of their relationship, how much the smut in this evolved, how the care and understand each other so fully and lovingly. That their darkness matches and will always be understood by one another. That their powers match and are the perfect balance of one another.
