I cannot even begin to describe how much I loved this. Well, put it this way: if I was going to write a book (it's on my list!), this is exactly the kind of book I would want to write. I just love the whole fantasy theme, court setting, mythical creatures thing... it's just my favourite type of book.
So, Feyre is a young girl who hunts in the enchanted woods in order to feed her family, who have fallen on hard times. While hunting one day, she shoots and kills what looks like a wolf, but is actually a faerie from Prythian - the faerie kingdom that exists at the expense of the human realm. As punishment for killing a magical creature, Feyre is sentenced to live out her days at the Spring Court, amongst faeries of all kinds, and it is here that she meets Tamlin. They fall in love, but all is not what it seems in Prythian, and Feyre is forced to prove her love in order to save the Spring Court and the entire faerie realm.
We also meet a character called Rhysand, who is very mysterious, and I cannot help but wonder how his relationship with Feyre will develop in the second and third books. This book has everything you could want from a fantasy novel, and I cannot wait to dive into the second book.
