A Court of Frost and Starlight | 
I picked a theme for my maternity shoot as kinda “Feyre-esque” there aren‘t the full edits but I‘m horribly impatient and obsessed with them already.
It‘s my 40th birthday (almost Feyre‘s birthday)
If you want to buy me a prezzy, here‘s my wishlist https://www.amazon.com/hz/wishlist/ls/MW6J1NHN1MRL?ref_=wl_share
pickThis one was easy to do over the weekend, I think it‘s a great idea having these cute little filler books
so-soEh. It‘s fine. It‘s cute and light, but the shifting perspectives do nothing for me, since every voice feels exactly the same. It also doesn‘t quite manage feeling cozy or wintry enough to work for me as a “holiday episode,” but if you‘re into ACOTAR I‘d still encourage giving it a read.
so-so3✨This is a light read after the war. A nice break for the characters. #TeamFlurken #SeriesLove #HauntedShelves
pickBook #4 in the series. It felt short, but I liked where it went. Valerie sounds like a nice place to live.
“And in the end, though, we‘d saved each other. All of us had.”

“He‘s gone, and I am not. Void was born of that feeling.”
pickOkay I am literally addicted to this series. “Hi, it‘s me I‘m the problem.” Love the different perspectives of this book, and I love the fact it takes place during solstice. 🌙
pickI love that this book takes place during Solstice!!! And can‘t believe I had no idea- It was a fun quick read into the Night Court and favorite Fae family.
so-soA fantasy novella filled with lusty and boozy scenes. No major plot, just main characters getting ready for the big Solstice party, worrying about presents and peace. Glimpses of how Velarís is not the same since the war, finding ways to give back to their people, and staying aware of rumblings of potential enemies. Feyre and Rhys make a big decision at the end of the book that could be life changing. Simple, sweet and not challenging to read.
pickShort and sweet, a lovely family solstice celebration. Of course, with any family gathering, there is also family drama. Still, it‘s a nice little slice of happiness amidst the craziness that is going on around them. This may have to be added to the audiobooks I like to listen to around my own Winter Solstice celebrations. This felt like a much more satisfying “The End” compared to the one at the end of ACOMAF.
In an effort to both continue this series and savor The House in the Cerulean Sea, I‘m starting this immediately.
#readtheceruleansea I got excited last night and now I‘m 50% of the way through Cerulean, so I really need to pace myself.

pickOnce I got past reading the words “my mate” 4765346 times and the overused endearment “Feyre darling,” I enjoyed this book more than the previous three. I like that there‘s more than one POV and it gives more depth to each of the main characters. I‘m hoping the next two include more of Elaine and Nesta. Book #78 in 2024
pick🥹🥹🥹🥹 this felt like a breather. I caught myself thinking, “are they really just celebrating Christmas right now??” A nice transition between books and conclusion to a big, big storyline. Even though nothing really happens, it made me crave winter. And after that tense last book, I welcomed it
pickThis one is a like a little sidebar christmas special of the series and really enjoyable. No threat, no wider dramas, just some enjoyable insights into the central protagonists and their inner circle and allow for richer development and insight into their relationships and motivations. A quick read before diving into the final, monster finale novel!
pickThis book has some steamy scenes and sweet moments. Thinking of it as more of a transition into other characters‘ stories, it was a welcome edition to the series.
⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️
Super excited to start this one 💙 I‘ve been ever so impatient.

Feyre, Rhysand, and their friends are still busy rebuilding the Night Court and the vastly altered world beyond, recovering from the war that changed everything. But Winter Solstice is finally approaching, and with it, the joy of a hard-earned reprieve.

pickI enjoyed this and what it added to the series, can‘t wait to jump into Nesta‘s book!
Accidentally skipped this one and went on to the final book. Whoops! 🤷🏼♀️🤣
pickThis is book 4 in the series! I love a book with different perspectives 🥰 this book was a nice change from the others in the series.. slowed down a bit and focused on the winter solstice ❄️
🛍 Yes! I started early and bought gifts as I saw them throughout the year, and thank goodness for that bc December has not started like I'd planned! 🙃
🛍 🛍 the tagged book is a favorite read of mine near the holidays. Such a cozy read, and the characters shop for Yule.

pickThis book is what I expected, a transition between ACOWAR and what is to come in ACOSF, some peace after the war, the calm after the storm, or before? Only I will know after I finish ACOSF. It does not keep you as engaged as the others but I still think is worth to read as part of the series. Despite the story line, it also has some pretty interesting scenes 😉. Also, a great read around the holidays, since it takes place during Winter Solstice.
pick4.75⭐
This is definitely the ACOTAR Christmas Special and it is amazing!
Allll the warm and cozy feels. ☺️☺️☺️
Glad I read this one in December ❄️
pickI see people‘s initial hesitancy, Through multiple perspectives and no full plot. But that‘s the beauty; as a Christmas special. Where characters finally get to be happy, to start healing, with the most stressful thing being buying gifts. I loved this novella. Best parts was seeing how everyone‘s healing, in own way. I love what Feyre is working towards. Pained for Nesta‘s way. Adored Insight on Cass and Az. #sjm
Pg 108 and 170: amazing
pickCute little Chrismas(-ish) story. There was a lack of plot, but the backstories and long awaited thoughtst made up for it. I'm not a big fan of mutiple POV's, but in this case it had a good reason, which made it work.
All concluded, not my favorite in the series, but a pleasant break from any war or fighting.
(🎧 - audiobook)
pickI really loved this book.
I definitely liked it more than Wings and Ruin.

pickI had no idea I would love these books and the characters so much!!
The first snow of winter had begun whipping through Velaris an hour earlier.
The ground had finally frozen solid last week, and by the time I‘d finished devouring my breakfast of toast and bacon, washed down with a heady cup of tea, the pale cobblestones were dusted with fine, white powder.

pickI loved this book because I was already in love with the characters, but it wasn‘t the most exciting thing in the world and took me longer to read despite it‘s shorter length. But it still was super cute and a nice romance break from the classic war and death. The worst part in the book (as with the others) is Nesta and her continually insufferable attitude
pickWhat isn‘t to live about these books? Although I did think this was going to be more about Nesta, I still loved the story, the characters and where this is going towards the last book.
pickI love this whole series as pure selfish escapism, an easy read to a different world when you have so much going on around you . I never understand “literary snobbery “ because surely what makes you happy is the joy of reading what ever genre you like and all any author aspires to is to be well read. Ms Maas has a huge following because she simply writes a good story not rocketscience just a good old fashioned story.
pickThis book was described to me as the “Hallmark Christmas Movie” of the ACOTAR series. And that is a very apt description. Luckily, I‘m a total sucker for sappy, holiday themed movies and throughly enjoyed reading A Court of Frost and Starlight, even though it was mostly fluff. Very excited to read Nesta‘s character development in the next one. The tension between her and Cassian is giving chills! Photo Credit : Charlie Bowater
