Der zweite Teil ist einfach mega! Es passiert so viel. Die Charaktere machen so eine geniale Entwicklung durch und es kommen neue tolle dazu! Es ist super spannend, traurig, Herzzerreißend uns überhaupt! Ein Traum von einer Fortsetzung. Wer durch den ersten Teil nicht gleich in dieses fantastische Universum gezogen wurde, wird es spätestens beim 2ten Band! Und ciao, ab geht's in den 3 Teil🫠🖤✨️😚

Ahhh. 4.5/5. I'll admit, I did not want to like this book as much as I did. After reading the first one, ACOTAR, I gave this one a chance because everyone said it was better. Let me tell you: it was SO much better. While Feyre is still annoying as hell, I got more of a feel for her person than I did in the first book. And still, I had to roll my eyes every time she spoke of beauty and painting and everything unnecessary in moments of DEATH. Gurl, get a grip, assess the situation and sort out your priorities. Nevertheless: I LOVED the new characters! There weren't too many, so each one had enough space to seem crafted carefully to understand them on a deeper level, as far as Maas wanted to let us know. The worldbuilding continues to go strong, and I loved to see Feyre's new powers, even if I wished it wasn't her who got them. She did seem smart at times, I'll give her that, and she knows what to fight for. I wished, hoped, wanted, to see more POC characters and representation but sadly that part still seemed a little too white-washed for my liking... The sexual scenes were okay, at times a little oddly-worded, but they portrayed emotions really well. I'm happy it was more than just Fae corn. Rhysand has my heart. Lucien: currently undecided, but I'll give him my faith. Same with Nesta. She's got balls tho.

Was für eine Fortsetzung! Ich bin immer noch komplett durch den Wind. Die Story hat mich so gepackt. emotional, spannend, stellenweise richtig düster, aber auch irgendwie wunderschön. Feyres Entwicklung war einfach nur krass gut geschrieben, und Rhysand… ich sag’s mal so: Ich bin offiziell Team Night Court. Und Tamlin? Ich bin SO sauer auf ihn. Echt jetzt. Ich hätte nie gedacht, dass ich ihn mal so schrecklich finden würde. Ich kann’s kaum erwarten, den dritten Band zu lesen – das Ende hat mich komplett zurückgelassen mit Herzklopfen und hundert Fragen im Kopf.

Bada-bing, bada-booooooom 🤯💥 I get the hype now ! Ich bin voll angetan 😍 Besonders das Lesen und gleichzeitig Audible Dramatized Audiobook hören, O-M-G ! 💗 . Ich Sitz nun da, pack nicht was gerade am Ende alles passiert ist. Der Zweite Band hat es wirklich in sich. Dagegen is der Erste wie ein gechilltes Kuschelkätzchen. 👍No Spoiler ich liebe wie sich Feyre entwickelt hat und wie Story weitergegangen ist, all die neuen Charaktere, Backroundstories die gelüftet werde und Geheimnisse die ans Licht kommen 🙈 Wowie ! I want more. Absolut Lesenswert 🥰

Hat mich im Vergleich zum ersten Band sehr gefesselt. Viel Spannung und tolle Charaktere/Weiterentwicklungen. Die aufkommenden Plottwists kamen aber ein bisschen…plötzlich. Als hätte man auf Krampf versucht die Geschichte umfangreich und tiefgreifend verkettet zu gestalten, hat aber nicht ganz so funktioniert. Wirkt am Ende ein bisschen erzwungen, obwohl der Mittelteil sehr lebendig war.

I feel like ACOMAF is mainly the story of Feyre finding herself and coming into herself especially this new version of herself both physically and mentally. We get to know a lot of new places in Prythian, new Courts and all. There is a whole lot of new history of the world in general but it never felt like infodumping but was woven into the story and felt natural. We also meet so many amazing new characters and besides the obvious relationship *Feysand* that everybody is shipping I loved the theme of found family that runs through the whole book. Mor, Cassian, Azriel and Amren are all so special and all of them quite broken in one way or another bit the fact that they survived and chose to be there for each other makes their and Rhysands relationship all the more stronger. Reading the first third of the book was really hard for me and I had to take a rather long pause before coming back to it because of the shitty situation the story starts of in. But once you get over this hard bit, it just kept getting better. Right until those last few chapters that broke my heart, mended it and then broke it some more. I was NOT okay after finishing ACOMAF and now need to continue with ACOWAR immediately! 💔✨

So this one was actually a little better than the first book. It definitely had way more tension and suspense, which was something the first book really was missing. But oh boy...the character expositions. The amount of character expositions in this book were astronomical to the point where it really got annoying. Don't get me wrong! I love myself a rich backstory. But in ACOMAF, it just felt like Sarah tried to drop everything important about her characters in this one book so she could be over with it. In a way, it kind of came across to me like she wanted to achieve the readers attachment to the characters via sympathy for their backstories instead of actual actions and interactions in the present timeline of the book. While the overly cheesy moments of the first book got saved by my best boy Lucien in the first book, this time, it was Amren and Mor who saved the day for me! I really enjoyed the two of them and can't wait to read more about them! After all, this was a solid but not groundbreaking read. The end, though, was a very intriguing and promising send-off to the third book, so I am interested to see how the story will continue!

I couldn't put “ACOMAF” down. My emotions had to survive various emotional rollercoasters to get to the end of this book. It was nice to learn so much about the personalities of the different characters and Prythian / the world. I can't wait to continue with “ACOWAR”. Contents: [⚠️ Spoiler] After the traumatic events under the mountain, Feyre returns to the Spring Court as a reawakened High Fae. However, she is broken inside - plagued by nightmares, guilt and the feeling of being trapped in a relationship with Tamlin, who increasingly controls her. When Tamlin finally locks her up completely, Feyre is rescued by Rhysand, the High Lord of Night Court. Rhysand takes Feyre to Velaris, a hidden and beautiful city untouched by war. There she meets his inner circle. Feyre begins to heal, discovers new powers within herself from her reawakening from the seven courts, and eventually becomes part of that inner circle. At the same time, war is brewing: The King of Hybern plans to conquer the Prythian Empire and subjugate the human world. To stop him, Feyre and her new allies must find an artifact that could limit the power of the Cauldron - an ancient, dangerous source of magical power. During the quest, the relationship between Feyre and Rhysand grows. It is revealed that they are not just friends or allies, but that they are mates - a deep, fateful connection. Feyre learns to accept her own strength and move on from her past with Tamlin. In an attempt to prevent the war, Feyre tries to seek allies with Rhysand and the inner circle. But a betrayal by Tamlin, who has allied himself with the King of Hybern, leads to Feyre being forced to feign loyalty to Tamlin in a dramatic finale in order to infiltrate the enemy camp and gather vital information for the resistance. The novel ends with Feyre returning to the Spring Court as a spy and new High Lady of the Night Court to fight her enemies from within.

My Feysand heart... Re-reading this is like coming home. Velaris the city of starlight. The Inner Circle. Our Highlord of the Court of Dreams. So much happens in this book and somehow it hits every time. I mean this has so many popular tropes: enemies-to-lovers, one bed trope, nightmare trope, fated-lovers. I love how Feyre slowly but surely falls for Rhys and I actually like that she doesn't find about the mating bond until the end. Because that just proves that she loves him for who he is. On of my favorite scenes has to be the " Illyrian wings are VERY sensitve" and him blowing into her ear part. it makes me giggle every single time. I just love how honest they are with each other and share their trauma with each other. Feyre feeling at home under the stars immediately, even though she tried so hard not to. The infamous wedding crash scene. The Court of Nightmares. The training scenes. The paper notes. The mating bond reveal and then the FUCKING soup. Ladies and gentlemen this is how you do it. I love them with all my heart. This book has so much going on and somehow above it all stand the deep love and friendship the Inner Circle have for each other and their Court of Dreams. I love the dynamics of the Inner Circle even though in this book we only see the surface of it. Feyre's first introduction to the Inner Circle will remain one of my favorite things and how quickly they all accepted her and made them part of their messy family. Feyre's healing processes is such a big part of this book. From her being so thin and barely sleeping through the night. The scene where she gets locked in gets me every time. The genuine horror and sorrow she experiences. How she slowly is able to face what she went through and the realization that love sometimes can be too strong and destroy you. I love how we see her become herself again and accept the she became a Fae. She grows and grows and not only mentally but she becomes strong and starts sleeping and eating well and is able to find happiness. She not only accepts but makes the gifts of the High Lords her own. Rhys was a big part of it, but that doesn't mean that she only grew because of him. Rhysand thinking he isn't worthy of love is so heartbreaking. He loves his people so much and dares to dream for the better. He would have let Feyre, his mate, stay with Tamlin if that made her happy. His drama truly is overlooked and I just want to give him a big hug. He tries to shoulder everything on his own and luckily he has friends who would just about do anything to help him wherever he will let them. Anyway this is already way to long but all these characters mean so much to me and I truly can't wait to re-read ACOWAR next, even though I know I will be heartbroken.

„I don‘t want to have to wait on anyone to rescue me.” p. 229 Endlich hat Feyre einen tiefen und starken Charakter! Ich mochte ihre Entwicklung sehr und auch, wie man als Leser mit ihr durch ihre Depression und dann Heilung geht. Es ist schön, wie der Bond zwischen ihr und Rhys als ein Full-Circle-Moment erzählt wird. Hier ist die Chemie und das Feuer, das in der Beziehung im ersten Buch völlig gefehlt hat. Keine 5 Sterne, weil ich mir den ersten Kuss vor den sexuellen Handlungen gewünscht hätte und weil die ersten 80 Seiten ein bisschen langsam waren.

Während in dem ersten Buch noch ein wenig die Geschichte eingeleitet wurde, man die Charaktere kennengelernt hat, die Welt ein bisschen besser verstanden hat… fängt für mich ehrlicherweise erst in diesem zweiten Band die starke Story so richtig an. Man kann leider also den ersten Teil nicht wirklich überspringen, aber ich fand Bd. 2 um Längen besser und verstehe jetzt auch den Hype um die Reihe. Viel Spannung, tolle Charaktere, eine Liebesgeschichte auf Augenhöhe und was ich besonders toll fand — trotzdem auch ein großer Fokus immer noch auf Freundschaften und nicht nur auf die Liebenden. Und natürlich nicht zu vergessen, das gesamte Kriegsgeschehen. Alles in allem klare Empfehlung.

i need to preface this by saying i was not expecting to like this series. oh my fucking god. this is the best book i’ve ever read. the chemistry, banter, tension just everything is done to perfection. this is by far one of the most beautiful love stories i’ve ever read too, it had me in tears at midnight crying for how much beauty is in this relationship, what a gorgeous love confession. the writing style is so poetic it totally immerses you into the land of the fae and the lyrical descriptions of the courts are just beautiful. the whole reading experience was just magical and took my breath away several times. i need a rhysand <3

Mit Teil 2 der Serie hat mich die Geschichte und die Acotar Reihe komplett für sich gewonnen. Acomaf ist für mich um einiges besser als Teil 1 und hat meine zwiegespaltene Meinung auf eine herunter gebrochen: unbedingt weiterlesen! Rhys hat mein ganzes Herz und der Plot entwickelt sich in diesem Teil wesentlich schneller. Viele Stellen und Bedeutungen aus dem ersten Teil werden wieder aufgenommen und tiefer ausgeführt. Das Ende birgt viele Überraschungen und hat mich über mehrere Kapitel entlang der Zeilen Tränen vergießen lassen mit Hunger auf Band 3 ✨

Ich habe bereits dem ersten Band dieser Reihe 5 ⭐️ gegeben und würde Band zwei am liebsten 6 ⭐️ geben. Es ist ein SO gutes Buch. Es passiert unheimlich viel und es ist einfach total spannend gewesen. Die Story rund um Feyre fasziniert mich. Die ganze Welt der sieben Höfe und die High Lord-Thematik sind super spannend und ziehen einen total in seinen Bann. Ich habe etwas länger für das Buch gebraucht, weils einfach total dick ist und ich im Englischen einfach etwas langsamer lese. Und dennoch war es eins meiner liebsten Bücher, die ich bisher gelesen habe. Ich hab gelächelt, Tränen in den Augen gehabt und war teilweise absolut geschockt. Es lohnt sich so so sehr, diese Reihe anzufangen. Verglichen zu Band 1 passiert in Band 2 zehn, wenn nicht fünfzehn mal so viel & man möchte einfach wissen, wie es weiter geht. Definitiv empfehlenswert! 📚

I still can´t think without drifting to this book ... It´s the best second book i´ve ever read. There was no single page without you wanting to devour the entire book because of the excitement. The persons i loved and the persons i hated in the first book changed their roles throughout this one; So, it depresses me so much that Rhys and Feyre ... well, because of the end. I finished the book in the middle of a group of friends, and the only thing i could do was ignoring them and closing my eyes - maybe the sequel might appear right before me ... But that didn´t happen, unfortunatly. I fear I have to wait like all the others until next year. I can´t wait for it! I thougt the first one already was a masterpiece, but i was proved wrong ... by this one. REREAD APRIL 2017 I still love this book. so much. it's heartwrenching and steamy and nervewrecking and ahh so good that it wakes all my feeeeels and this ending-i need ACOWAR now

ACOMAF hat mir unfassbar viel Lesefreude bereitet und mich dabei in eine Welt entführt, die ich mir wunderbar vorstellen konnte 🏛🖤💫. Ich habe mit Feyre und Rysand mitgefiebert und dieses besondere Band geradezu gefühlt. Freundschaft, Liebe, Ängste und Vertrauen werden darin so gut abgedeckt und vor allem die Entwicklung von Feyre unfassbar gut beschrieben. Was mich aber am meisten begeistert ist, dass kein unnötig dramatischen Cliffhanger am Ende platziert wurden. Nein, die Geschichte ist so wholesome, geht mitten ins Herz, rundet sich ab und macht neugierig auf den nächsten Teil der Buchreihe 🤭. Die letzten 30-50 Seiten sind voll von Twists und Überraschungen, die aber allesamt gut nachvollziehbar und wunderbar gesetzt sind... kein unnötiges Drama, kein Leser wird mit zig Fragen zurückgelassen. Vielmehr freue ich mich auf den nächsten Teil und werde jetzt mit Sicherheit noch mehr von Sara J. Maas lesen 😍.

This book—wow. Why did it take me so long to finish it?! This was really a rollercoaster of emotions and I was certainly not prepared for what was coming. It was written so freaking well! It was so, so good. Love, hate, everything. I wanted to trash the book (not really, love this baby) because SJM wrote it so well. Could you get through all the stages of happiness and grief in a minute. It's a ride, but it's definitely worth it. When you finished the first book, don't let it take too long to finish the second becauze I regret that part. Good thing though: I started my year and finished January with a really good book. I'm still utterly shocked that I don't know what to say except for that it was so good. And I will repeat that.

Es hat ein bisschen gedauert, um reinzukommen, vor allem, weil Feyre am Anfang nur vor sich hin siecht. Tamlis 1. Verrat hat mich nicht so richtig umgehauen, weil ich vorher zu viele Theorien dazu hatte, warum ihn alle hassen (allen voran, dass er Lucien umbringt haha). Aber ab da wird die Story immer besser und spannender! Die Romance zwischen Rhysand und Feyre find ich sehr süß. Auch, obwohl ich schon recht früh dachte, dass die beiden bestimmt mates sind, hat mir das gut gefallen. Das Ende war super spannend und hat mich dann doch nochmal überrascht! Liebe es, dass Feyre so badass ist. Es wurde gegen Ende sehr das Narrativ aufgebaut, dass alle wichtigen Charaktere einen love interest haben und ich hoffe, dass das in den nächsten Bänden nicht so viel Raum einnimmt, weil es sich schon ein bisschen nach „alles MÜSSEN ein happy end haben!!111!1“ anfühlt. Mal sehen, bin auf jeden Fall gespannt!

Whaaaaat. There are so many things I love about this book. Yes, most of the real action again only starts in the last 20% but getting there is a roller-coaster ride itself (although a lot of it was obvious, but Feyre being so bloody stubborn kept the suspense up I guess). The Bat Boys are BAE. And Mor, oh how I would devour a book from her perspective. She's a queen, and I want a happy end for her. For a long time I was thinking maybe they'll become some sort of trio, but evidently SJM has other plans for Cassian, which I approve of as well. Amren I didn't have any feelings towards until right there at the end when she basically demanden to know where Feyre was. Although I did like that she had that Summer Court prince wrapped around her finger. During the final showdown, when Lucien went to offer Elain his cape I already knew what was about to happen for them. Tamlin is still a fool. I can't wait to see how that unravels in book 3. I just want Lucien to finally realize that his High Lord is a prick for wanting a mating bond severed. I want Lucien to turn on him, but deep down I feel that's not going to happen.

5⭐️ why not Okay I loved everything about this book. When I started it I never thought I could finish it but I did and now I’m sad. I loved everything in this book except for the first part with Tamlin. For obvious reasons. But this book made me feel so much! I laughed out loud, cried a little bc I couldn’t believe, what happened at the end but most importantly I fell in love with every character of the IC the rest… I mean the Attor, the lord of the court of nightmares, the king of Hybern… they can all burn in hell. But one thing that I don’t hate but that I noticed is that for me there isn’t really a built up to the love confession. That was my problem kn the first book too, that the realization and actual love confession came so fast and I personally as a reader didn’t feel the experience of the falling in love. I loved Feyre and Rhysand together nonetheless ❤️

Ich finde dieses Buch war einfach von vorne bis hinten spannend. Es hat vielen Charackteren mehr Tiefe gegeben und man durfte viele neue kennen und lieben lernen. Ich bin so gespannt gleich weiter zu lesen und zu sehen wie es mit den Charackteren weiter geht. Man kann sich in dieser Welt einfach verlieren.
