Num mundo dividido uma muralha mágica separa duas espécies. De um lado, os feéricos vivem dentro de suas fronteiras cheias de beleza e mistério; do outro, os humanos possuem apenas medo, desconfiança e dificuldades.

Feyre, filha de um casal de mercadores humanos e falidos, se torna caçadora para sustentar a família. Dura como as flechas que carrega, letal como sua pontaria, ela abandona as fantasias de garota e as troca pela árdua vida nas florestas ao redor de sua aldeia.

Sua única alegria é observar as cores e sonhar em capturá-las. Mas, na floresta, coberta de neve tudo é branco e árido; como o ódio pelos feéricos que carrega no coração; Como as telas que não pode comprar ou colorir. Até que um enorme lobo cruza seu caminho... Sem hesitar, Feyre dispara... uma flecha. Um ato de rebelião.

Após matar o lobo, uma criatura bestial surge exigindo uma reparação. Arrastada …

Num mundo dividido uma muralha mágica separa duas espécies. De um lado, os feéricos vivem dentro de suas fronteiras cheias de beleza e mistério; do outro, os humanos possuem apenas medo, desconfiança e dificuldades.

Feyre, filha de um casal de mercadores humanos e falidos, se torna caçadora para sustentar a família. Dura como as flechas que carrega, letal como sua pontaria, ela abandona as fantasias de garota e as troca pela árdua vida nas florestas ao redor de sua aldeia.

Sua única alegria é observar as cores e sonhar em capturá-las. Mas, na floresta, coberta de neve tudo é branco e árido; como o ódio pelos feéricos que carrega no coração; Como as telas que não pode comprar ou colorir. Até que um enorme lobo cruza seu caminho... Sem hesitar, Feyre dispara... uma flecha. Um ato de rebelião.

Após matar o lobo, uma criatura bestial surge exigindo uma reparação. Arrastada para além do muro, para uma terra mágica e traiçoeira - que ela só conhece por meio de lendas -, a jovem descobre que seu captor não é um animal, mas Tamlin, Grão Senhor da Terra Primaveril. Um feérico com um segredo, escondido sob uma máscara. Ela descobre ainda que o então animal que havia assassinado era, na verdade, uma criatura mágica, uma fada zoomórfica transformada em lobo.

À medida que ela descobre mais sobre este mundo onde a magia impera, seus sentimentos por Tamlin passam da mais pura hostilidade até uma paixão avassaladora. Enquanto isso, uma sinistra e antiga sombra avança sobre o mundo das fadas e Feyre deve provar seu amor para detê-la ou Tamlin e seu povo estarão condenados.

Corte de espinhos e rosas é um livro de fantasia de tirar o fôlego. Memorável em todos os aspectos, com personagens complexos, enredo rico e um magnífico mundo de fantasia combinados impecavelmente para criar um romance épico.

Utena reviewed Court of Thorns and Roses by Sarah J. Maas

Hades and Persephone with a touch of Beauty and the Beast.

4 stars

I had been promising myself that I would read this series but I always kept putting it off. Mostly, this was due to the fact I had read A Throne of Glass a long time ago and found the female lead not readily to my liking. I had always promised myself that I would eventually give it another try but first, I wanted to read A Court of Thorn and Roses. I had been hearing a lot of mixed reviews but my friends have mostly been the ones telling me that the series was much better once you started reading it.

I won't lie when I have been told that the series is a mixture of Hades and Persephone with Beauty and the Beast. I have always been a sucker for these and I had placed this series on my TBR. Now that I had time, I decided this would …

I had been promising myself that I would read this series but I always kept putting it off. Mostly, this was due to the fact I had read A Throne of Glass a long time ago and found the female lead not readily to my liking. I had always promised myself that I would eventually give it another try but first, I wanted to read A Court of Thorn and Roses. I had been hearing a lot of mixed reviews but my friends have mostly been the ones telling me that the series was much better once you started reading it.

I won't lie when I have been told that the series is a mixture of Hades and Persephone with Beauty and the Beast. I have always been a sucker for these and I had placed this series on my TBR. Now that I had time, I decided this would be the series for December. The final books that would end my 2023 reading year.

But now having read the series, I am a bit torn about where to rank it. While the story felt slow - too slow for that matter, it did have its moments. But again, the female lead is what drove me insane. I don't what it is about Maas's female leads but they end up being extremely annoying. I don't feel she improves much. I don't want to give too much away, but I found her decisions and actions frustrating at times. However, there were also moments where she showed strength and resilience, which I appreciated.

On the other hand, the world-building in this series was phenomenal. Maas has created a rich and vivid world, filled with different courts and creatures. I was completely immersed in this fantastical world and loved learning about the various realms and their politics.

The romance in this series felt slow. For one thing, I am glad that this was not some insta-love with both declaring how much they were made for each other, blah blah blah but it was taken slowly allowing the characters to see each other's flaws and strengths but at the same time I also felt that it was at a crawl. It could be frustrating at times and at other times it felt right.

Final Thought:

Despite its flaws, I did enjoy reading the A Court of Thorns and Roses series. The rich world-building and captivating romance kept me engaged despite some of the frustrations with the main character. I would still recommend giving it a try, especially if you enjoy fantasy and romantic elements.

4.35/5
