When nineteen-year-old huntress Feyre kills a wolf in the woods, a terrifying creature arrives to demand retribution. Dragged to a treacherous magical land she knows about only from legends, Feyre discovers that her captor is not truly a beast, but one of the lethal, immortal faeries who once ruled her world. At least, he’s not a beast all the time. As she adapts to her new home, her feelings for the faerie, Tamlin, transform from icy hostility into a fiery passion that burns through every lie she’s been told about the beautiful, dangerous world of the Fae. But something is not right in the faerie lands. An ancient, wicked shadow is growing, and Feyre must find a way to stop it, or doom Tamlin—and his world—forever. From bestselling author Sarah J. Maas comes a seductive, breathtaking book that blends romance, adventure, and faerie lore into an unforgettable read.

  • niche link! (coming from the pod!)

    to preface, i hadn't heard of the book until mentioned on the pod (which led to me making this connection) when lucy summarised it as 'a 17 year old falling in love with ancient like 500 years old fairies' the age gap and fantasy element reminded me of kamisama kiss - a manga centred around a young female protagonist (16) who falls in love with a god (600+) whilst also generally fawned over by other spirits who are also hundreds of years older. at the time i didn't think much of it as the male lead was presented good looking and much younger, on top of being somewhat used to female leads being so young living a crazy life having read s o much manga, but looking back now it is odd! maybe i'll pick this up and see how i feel now.

    I'm just not into this so far... where is the romance? I feel like I'm a good chunk in and I'm not invested.
