A Court of Silver Flames by Sarah J. Maas
5.0
⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️ / 5 stars
In a court of silver flames, we follow Nesta in her journey towards self-development in the aftermath of the War with Hybern and all that happened.
I absolutely loved the character development and the journey we went on together with Nesta. The exploration into the impact of grief and fear on mental health was amazing to read. Sjm highlighted how unhealthy coping mechanisms and self-sabotage can become someone’s only defense when they are in pain, helping us understand Nesta better. Her journey was raw, relatable and beautiful to read. How she kept falling down and climbing back up was just very empowering to read.
Cassians patience and strength in this book was also just mind blowing, whatever happened he kept reaching out his hand. It was more evidence as to what a wonderful character he is. I was so happy we got to learn much more about him in this book! The relationship between him and Nesta is not only steamy smut but what was very appealing to me was the minor displays of affection and the respect they have for each other!
The new characters in the book were also just wonderful. Their friendship, the strength they show and fighting for themselves was just wonderful to read and I just kept smiling reading those scenes.
And honestly one of the most amazing developments in the whole book is just The House of Wind! The humor it brought was just really fresh between al the screaming and crying in from my part. And Helions entrance in the book is honestly everything!
The way of writing just made it very hard to put the book down. Especially towards the end where mid chapter the characters POV would chance at cliffhanger moments! It was frustrating to not immediately know how it would proceed, but that made continuing the book just that much easier. It was also really refreshing to see the Inner Circle, who we all know from previous book, in a slightly different light because we see them through the eyes of Nesta and Cassian.
This book had me laughing, crying and screaming multiple times throughout its chapters. It was just an amazing and very powerful read and it really set a standard for me for what the other books will bring, and I look forward to the day they’ll be on my shelves as well!
I also have a theory that the red star that shot through the sky was Aelin falling through Prythian.
