It's the winter special. Not so much actually happens, and it's a lot of setup for Silver Flame. 

I enjoyed getting to read other POVs, the silly moments, the sad moments. I wish there was more of a plot line and not just
Feyre opens an art studio whilst Cassian angsts over Nesta and Illyria
. 

This did make me start to dislike Feyre and Rhys just a little, it definitely left me ready to focus on other characters now.

I was gearing myself up to not like this book but I find it to be really entertaining. I think it allows a break from the sadness that was the last book. It was really interesting to delve more into other characters and to see how they try to find happiness post war and death.

I enjoyed the graphic audio version of the book a little more than just reading the book. It made it a little more entertaining. The switch from first person to third person limited each chapter still throws me off and even more so in this production with the narrator.

This audiobook is six and a half hours long and I swear at least an hour of it is Feyre angsting over spending money while poor faerie war orphans starve in poor faerie Africa or whatever. Very "do they know it's Christmas".

Tbh, I consider banter to be one of SJM's strongest suits, so this is a pretty strong entry into the canon.
