Court

Katmere is destroyed, friends are kidnapped, skeleton armies rise, and Hudson dies thousands of deaths nightly (literally, it’s soul trauma for our Sad Boy). Grace discovers she’s the heir to the Gargoyle Court and is somehow responsible for an army frozen in time. There are impossible trials, a god-killer poison, betrayals, and, more significantly, boy drama. By now, I’m less horrified and more fascinated by how far this series has leaned into absurdity.

Impossible trials and god-killer poison. YA fantasy, or medieval performance art? You decide.

Court by Tracy Wolff is the fourth book of the series. It’s horribly long, 720 pages and drawn out and honestly should’ve been the end of the series overall with how she ended it. Why there are another two books beats me. She’s horribly repetitive with all of her phrasing and storyline, reminds me of an amateur author. This book could’ve been 100 pages shorter if she didn’t repeat Grace’s whoa-is-me thought process over and over.

Nearly all the characters in this series are unlikeable. The main character, Grace, is still just as self-absorbed, obnoxious, and weak as she was in book 1. Her boyfriend, Hudson, is pretty bland and his personality changes by book like Wolff doesn’t know how to keep him consistent. Even Flint is show more no longer an enjoyable character, even with all of his flaws.

I’ve mentioned before that I wish Jaxon, since book 1 was the protagonist of the series. But by now I just wish she wouldn’t have created his character at all. Nothing good ever happens to him and honestly the other characters are just mean to him, it’s like Wolff’s punching bag. She started him off as a strong character and then just beats him down for the next 3 books, and from what I’ve read, she tries to reconcile it by giving him a mate but he’s still not appreciated in the next two.

★★★ Definitely not one of my favorite vampire series. I will finish it out but I wouldn’t recommend. show less

The wait was so hard for this book and it did not disappoint! It was suspenseful, emotional, heartbreaking and wonderful all at once. Grace struggled to let herself become who she always was and was meant to be but in the end she was brave and selfless. The world and the details are what make this book so enthralling and engaging and yes some may say Grace is a character that is a bit whiny or emotional but if you look at who she really is all around, she is the way she is because she has such an inner struggle and when she comes to terms with that it is all worth it. I may have to read this book again just to get to enjoy the world all over again. If you love fantasy and YA and a little romance, this is a fantastic book and a great series!

this one was a little slow in the grabbing me stage. towards the end it got me and I didnt want to put it down

Book #4 in the series and I am still in love. This one picks up right were we left off in Covet. Grace continues to gain more power and control of her gargoyle half. She also learns about her family history and were her strings come from.

Have decided to skip book 5. I've enjoyed this series despite the many times I've rolled my eyes at our main heroine for all her dramatics.

I love this series so much, Court was another fantastic addition to the story, so much is going through, can't wait for more. Hudson, I love Hudson, The narration by Heather Costa and Tim Paige is fantastic, I did find editing mistakes but overall the audiobook is fantastic. You need to add this to your library if you love the series and if you haven't started this phenomenal story, what are you waiting for go click on Crave and start it already!
