A Court of Thorns and Roses
by Sarah J. Maas
YAF/Novel/Fantasy Fiction/High Fantasy
A Court of Thorns and Roses by Sarah J. Maas is an enemies-to-lovers story which follows the main protagonist, Feyre Archeron. As Feyre is human, and when she goes into the magical land of Prythian, she is suddenly surrounded by lethal predators: fairies (fae in the story’s terms). As we see things through the eyes of Feyre, we too learn of the complex history and issues that living in Prithian entails.
A Court of Thorns and Roses is the first of the series of five. In my opinion, the books only get better, and that is saying something because the first book is fun and captivating to read. However, my only caveat is that if you have a problem reading long books, I would suggest finding a different book series. On the other hand, if you are interested in a lover’s story, a world of powers and fantasy, and overcoming great evil at the hands of a dictator, then this book is for you.
