Book Beginnings on Fridays is hosted by Rose City Reader. To participate, grab your current read and share the first sentences.


The forest had become a labyrinth of snow and ice. I'd been monitoring the parameters of the thicket for an hour, and my vantage point in the crook of a tree branch had turned useless. The gusting wind blew thick flurries to sweep away my tracks, but buried along with them any signs of potential quarry.
-Page 1 of A Court of Thorns and Roses by Sarah J. Mass
I didn't, and when I went to ask more about whom I should try to avoid, she had already finished with my hair and opened the door to the hall.

When nineteen-year-old huntress Feyre kills a wolf in the woods, a beast-like creature arrives to demand retribution. Dragged to a treacherous magical land she knows about only from legends, Feyre discovers that her captor is not an animal but Tamlin- one of the lethal immortal faeries who once ruled their world.
As Feyre dwells on his estate, her feelings for Tamlin transform from icy hostility into a fiery passion that burns through every lie and warning she's been told about the beautiful, dangerous world of the Fae. But an ancient, wicked shadow over the faerie lands is growing, and Feyre must find a way to stop it... or doom Tamlin- and his world- forever.

So far I am only a few pages into it. I have heard lots of mixed reviews about it. Some people have told me that they've hated it and some have said they've loved it. Thanks for stopping by! :)

I tried reading this a few times last year, but just couldn't for the life of me get into it, so I set it aside for the time being. Hopefully in the future, I'll be able to dive back in and actually finish...but I'm not real worried about it at this point.

Hopefully you enjoy the read, though! Thank you so much, again, for stopping by my Friday 56 earlier! Happy Friday to you!

I didn't love the first book in this series - I almost didn't continue with the series but the second book was amazing so I definitely recommend continuing the series and I hope you enjoy them!
