Why we recommend it

The ACOTAR bridge novella: winter in Velaris, the aftermath of war, and the quiet that follows violence. Maas writes the rebuilding with as much attention as the conflict — the frost is healing and grief, the starlight is what both of them are reaching toward, and the novella is a palate cleanser with real emotional weight.
