Books like Iron Daughter doesn\’t really live up with the Sarah J. These books are definitely very indie like, but there is an undeniable reason why they\’re still so popular, because of how addicting they are. The Iron Fey books reminded me a lot of the Obsidian books by Jennifer L. Now I\’m doing the same with Julie Kagawa\’s Iron Fey series. Recently, I have Leigh Bardugo a second chance with her Grishaverse, and that ended with me devouring her works. So as my ARC, TBR, and required summer reading book pile continue to manifest itself into a size that I can no longer tame, I am here literally re-reading the first book of series and giving books second chances. I think that this will ultimately come back to hurt both courts in the future books, especially with Ash and Meghan banished. They both take such a myopic view of the world, and they fail to see the bigger picture.
I also think the Summer and Winter Courts need to figure their issues out. He pledges to help Meghan get the scepter back and to prevent any spoilers that is all I will say. Ironhorse has his own morals and values, and nothing will deter him from them. He is definitely interesting and loud, but I think he (along with Puck) are the two most reliable characters in this book. Ironhorse, I think he was my favorite character this time. Grim is great for always keeping her in check by saying things like \”stupid human\” or \”stop talking.\” He was really only expressing what we were all thinking. Also, where the heck did her confusion about Puck come from? I am pretty sure she stated multiple times in the past book that they were \”just friends,\” but now she is not sure if she loves him or not? Ash and Puck should both run in the opposite direction and find someone who does not have some crisis every five seconds. Just like that, we are back onto another quest with Meghan, Puck, Ironhorse, and how could we forget Grim! Meghan was still pretty horrible the rest of the book, but she did become more tolerable. Luckily, about 20% in, shit goes down, and the Iron Fey come and ruin everything (but maybe they really saved the book?).
If I had to listen to her ask and wonder where Ash was any longer, I probably would have DNF\’ed this. I wanted to bang my head against the wall the entirety of her time in the Winter Court. She was HORRIBLE! What happened to the Meghan, who was going to save her brother no matter what? The Meghan who ran headfirst into trouble if it meant saving someone she loved? Well, she is gone all she does is wallow in self-pity of Prince Ash\’s alleged abandonment. I still really liked this book I 100% agree with others who say they could not stand Meghan. I feel like I might not be in the most popular opinion regarding the second book in the Iron Fey series.
