did not expect the nesta alcoholism arc like. at all. but otherwise i loved seeing the group in a cute christmas-y setting, exchanging gifts and drinking wine deep into the night. although i do understand that nesta is healing from the Literal War she never wished to be a part of i didn’t feel like it made a lot of sense to be so distant from her sisters, especially after their father’s death. other things i liked: feyre’s eye tattoos being changed to match the velaris crest was SO heartwarming!!!! elain and azriel interactions are so gentle i love them!!! and the cake she made feyre for her birthday 🥹!!! also the sex scene towards the end 🫣🥵 but what i loved most is feyre becoming an art teacher for young fae struggling after the war it’s so good to see her healing in that way and showing others to do the same. so excited to meet their kid in the next book <3
Minor: Alcoholism and Abandonment
one of the character’s arcs throughout this short book deals with alcoholism in a mild way; they distance themselves for the majority of the book, hence the abandonment tag
