May saw the publication of Sarah J. Maas' latest installation in her "A Court of Thorns and Roses" series. The newest instalment is Maas' version of a novella, but at 272 pages it's more like a novel.

A Court of Frost and Starlight is set after the events of the last actual novel in the series and focuses heavily on the characters familiar to readers and their relationships, as they are preparing for their first Winter Solstice. Thus, as there is not much plot development I am hesitant to recommend A Court of Frost and Starlight. I personally loved the novella, but it is in no way required to be read to enjoy the series as a whole. If you are already a fan of the "A Court of Thorns and Roses" series and want to read about the everyday lives of the characters in it, I would recommend reading this to tide you over until the last book in Maas' "Throne of Glass" series is released this fall.

Rating: ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐
