Reviews with content warning for Alcohol - A Court of Frost and Starlight

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.

4.5

This is just the book the series needed after A Court of Wings and Ruin. Through this holiday experience we are able to relax and find comfort in the characters healing process. That is not to say raw emotions aren't shown.

Nesta especially is struggling with her mental health.

I loved the juxtaposition this book showed. No fighting, not much political scheming, just people who love each other trying to piece together their fallen world.

Also bonus points for the multiple perspectives, including everyone!

A cute, quick read. This is very much fluff compared to the previous 3 in the series (why it's considered book 3.5 rather than book 4, I suppose). There's no particular plot to speak of, very little conflict. I do appreciate getting multiple character POVs so you get into the heads of other characters than Feyre and Rhysand.
