Okay so a series that ate me alive starts with a retelling of Beauty and the Beast, the rest of the series leaves this behind, but let’s talk about the parallels. Her father was a rich merchant who lost his fortune on three ships. She’s in an enchanted castle with a cursed beast, and there’s an exceptional rose garden (though she’s not especially interested). She’s the youngest of three sisters, and (we’ll put the spoiler warning here), she returns home to them without breaking the curse. That’s where things take a sharp turn. She realizes that going home was a mistake and that she wanted to be with the beast she loved, but she’s too late to break the curse the first way. She decides that she’ll do whatever she has to in order to fix things. This ends up pitting her against a dangerous challenge. She’s not just a frail beauty (even though her name is Feyre), she’s a huntress. She has to use her skills, her wit, and her allies to break the curse. Small acts of kindness on her part save her more than once in this series. ( )

Obligada a vivir en la corte de primavera por el asesinato de un basallo fiel a lord Tamlin, señor de esta misma corte. Feyre se ve envuelta en una lucha por salvar a todas las cortes bajo la amenaza de Amarantha, la villana que tiene embrujado a casi todos los ciudadanos de este mundo mágico. ( )

So many people told me they loved this book that I was sure I would at least like it. Unfortunately, I found it really boring - I kept reading, because I heard that the beginning is slow, but then it gets exciting. For me it didn't. Maybe it was because I really, really didn't like the main heroine, she was so whiny and seemed kind of stupid and I couldn't understand half of her choices. I'm sorry, but I kind of hated this book and I don't understand why so many people are enchanted with it. ( )

Having been in a reading slump, not having the ability to connect to a story - this story and its characters have become my absolute favorite. ( )
