This book follows Feyre, a human living in poverty. The human world is separated from the magical world by a large wall. She mistakenly kills a wolf who was actually a shapeshifter. A beast comes and takes Feyre across the wall as payment for the life she took.
This book reminded me of Beauty and the Beast, but as the book went on, it became a more intense and captivating version. I read this book while recovering from a surgery and it was a great way to spend my time. This is the first fantasy book I have ever read and it really opened me up to the genre! I really liked this book and I read it within a few days. It was so captivating and fast paced since so much stuff happened. A Court of Thorns and Roses is a great book if you want to start reading more fantasy and the rest of the book series just gets better!
