No questions asked, except of that I have a million of questions and will never get any answers! Or my favourite: spoilerįeyre’s father!!! I mean WTH?!!! Let him come to their rescue even though he apparently never gave a shit about his daughters before, let him name his freaking merchant ships after them and join their forces and then for good measure let us kill him and wrap it up with a bow! Yes, that’s exactly how you dispose of a storyline you would have never been able to explain otherwise. No matter if it’s the Mor/Cassian/Az dynamic, Lucien/Elain, the Queens from the continent, Rhys long lost allies, etc.

All this build up, all those revelations and at the end everything is dealt with in a couple of pages. There were so many topics I would have liked to explore, yet Sarah never digged any deeper. Don’t get me wrong, there actually happens a lot but many of the things that happen ultimately don’t seem to be important for the overall storyline, which is a shame. See, it only took me a few sentences to convey the main plot of the book. Well, and then there’s the war and the final battle. A huge part of the book has its focus on the war and how to either prevent or to win it, people are persuaded to join ranks, a few surprise guests make their appearances, there are some fighting scenes and a meeting with Feyre’s and Rhy’s allies. It’s as simple as that! As much as I appreciate all the different threads of the story coming together at the end, the way to get there and how the ending was executed just didn’t do it for me. Something important that every book should have: A good ending. Maas wrote a great book, but it lacked something the first two books had. Even after rereading it and appreciating the little details that were dropped throughout the entire story I couldn’t help but see the weaknesses of it too. I really enjoyed this third and last instalment of the ACOTAR series BUT (and there always seems to be a “but” when it comes to “A Court of Wings and Ruin”) I still think that it’s the weakest book in the entire series. “Only you can decide what breaks you, Cursebreaker.
