Court of Shadows audiobook

I don't think I can accurately describe my feelings about this book, okay??I do know that I need a third book. Desperately. Also the author blurb in the back simply states this as "the second book in the House of Furies series" so, like with my rather stubborn ship of Morningside and Louisa, I will cling to every morsel of hope.Yes, I am that obsessed with this series, okay?? BECAUSE THERE'S JUST SO MUCH TO LOVE!!I got angst, a twisty plot, plenty of fascinating, intricate characters, SO MANY MORNINGSIDE AND LOUISA INTERACTIONS (view spoiler)[ my favorite line that I will forever take out of context and flail happily about is when he tells her "if I prayed, you would be the answer" (hide spoiler)] that my shipper heart will cling to with unshakable hope, excellent writing that is well-paced and adds just so perfectly to the tone of this series . . . ahhhhh so much to love. And I'm soooo happy that this didn't suffer from ye awful second book syndrome!! Like, it both was its own story but also perfectly carried over from the first book?? Help, I've fallen in love and don't want to get out.Note: also I think this is my most liked review for some reason, even though all I said originally, before the book was released and I was still flailing over the perfection of House of Furies, was this:*quietly ships Morningside and Louisa*wow thanks y'all I feel so much better flailing about these two knowing I'm not alone ahahaAnd finally:hi I'd like a third book ASAP please + there's definitely tons of open plot lines and *cough* romance that could absolutely be explored please and thank you Ms RouxUpdate: hi I'm screaming because THERE'S A THIRD BOOK!!!

Me gustó muchísimo más que la mansión de las furias, para empezar.Louisa creció mucho y la interacción con sus alrededores también mejoró para bien.Madeleine logró que este libro fuera algo que se lee sin parar, con sin sinfín de elementos que logran conjugar una historia que se narra con excelencia, su mejor libro hasta ahora.La corte y como está conformada fue una cosa super interesante, y la forma en la que se juega el bien y el mal es adorable, algo que se disfruta por su complejidad.El señor Morningside me atrapó, tan exótico que es imposible no sentir curiosidad por lo que hará.La idea de la carpa fue de lo mejor que he leído, muy creativo, fue como un desfile de excentricidades y seres extraños traídos a la vida como por arte de magia.El pasado de Louisa es otro acierto, embona perfecto con la historia y nos deja perplejos ante lo que significa.La parte como introducción/diccionario no me encantó, fue la parte tediosa pero tampoco fue tan desagradable.Muero por saber lo que pasará, necesito el tercer libro.

Ugh, why did they do a cover change? I know I'm being fussy but they first showed a matching cover that was red to go with the first cover which is blue. It would've looked so nice!I'm getting so sick of cover changes so that we have nothing to match with the first one we spend money on. This one isn't half as cool looking. What are the publishers thinking?

I enjoyed Court of Shadows just as much as I enjoyed House of Furies.I highly recommend this series if you love horror or you're looking for something new to read.

Buy the book or get it from the library ❤️On my next payday, Im going to pick up this entire series for my bookshelves. So damn good, very descriptive, detailed and fleshed out characters, excellent plot and superb pacing. I cant wait to devour the rest of this authors books!

3/4 of the book was so painfully slow but the last 100 pages or so made up for it. I love Roux's work and rated it a 4 because I've really grown to admire her as a person. But if I were to stumble upon this book and had not have read any of her previous books, I would have rated it much lower. overall, much creepier than the first (house of furies). Not necessarily scary (to me at least) but I loved the creepy imagery of Father. I thought the Egyptian touch to this story was unique. I'm disappointed that Lee and her did not end up together but maybe it was for the best? A lot of people ship Mr. Morningside and Louisa and I am soooo against this. No. Nope. This is a super disorganized review but I'm doing it from my phone and am too lazy on this Sunday. 🤷🏻‍♀️

Marvelous! What an underrated series! This was just as good as the first book—no second book syndrome here!
