5.0
THIS IS AN ARC BOOK REVIEW FOR NETGALLEY.
This novel exceeded my best expectations. The synopsis is right: [b:These Hollow Vows|53422971|These Hollow Vows|Lexi Ryan|https://i.gr-assets.com/images/S/compressed.photo.goodreads.com/books/1603478051l/53422971._SY75_.jpg|82902232] gave me all the warm and fuzzy nostalgia of [b:A Court of Thorns and Roses|16096824|A Court of Thorns and Roses (A Court of Thorns and Roses, #1)|Sarah J.

While Holly Black has proven herself to be the mistress of all Fae writing, [a:Lexi Ryan|2856947|Lexi Ryan|https://images.gr-assets.com/authors/1344277778p2/2856947.jpg] is a promising contender for the title. This Faerie world is illustrious, mysterious, and enchanting. I never wanted to leave! I'm dying to get my hands on a sequel.
I really can't say enough good things about this book! I immediately fell in love with our main heroine Brie, and the amount of character development she goes through is astounding! Truly great character work. Her relationship with the Unseelie Court is awesome; their banter is hilarious! I got to the point where I grew sick of Prince Ronan and all I wanted was more time with Finn and his friends. They give me such strong Night Court vibes; I love it!
I was mentally preparing myself for lots of twists and turns when I started reading this novel, but even just a few chapters in the plot blew me away! That plot twist with Sebastian...oh my gosh, it was so unpredictable and from there on out, this book had me in a chokehold. I fell in love with the new world Brie is discovering, and all the fantastically explained lore.
