A Court of Frost and Starlight is the fourth book in the series and definitely the most boring. This book is short, but it felt like forever while reading it. It is the definition of a filler book as it follows Feyre and her family in the Night Court over a holiday. This book is different from the others since you get multiple perspectives which was interesting. The book was not bad, but it was definitely not on the same level as the other books.

Crescent City is the first in the newest series of critically acclaimed Sarah J. Maas’s works. It’s arguably the most confusing series of Maas’s to start, purely because you don’t really know what’s going on for a hot second. Bryce Quinlan is a young woman who is half-Fae, and is quite the party-goer. One thing unfortunately leads to another, and Bryce finds her friend, Danika, dead in their apartment. A couple years later, Bryce is investigating the murder.
