In this spoiler-free breakdown of Chapters 33 and 34 of A Court of Thorns and Roses, Feyre makes the ultimate choice and heads Under the Mountain!!! Guilt-ridden over failing to break Amarantha’s curse by not telling Tamlin that she loves him, Feyre steps into the lion’s den to fix what she believes she broke.

Alis lays down a few simple rules before Feyre embarks on her journey… which Feyre immediately breaks. We’re talking about the weight of guilt, the bravery of walking into the unknown, and how Feyre’s doubts and self-loathing make her one of the most relatable heroines in modern romantasy.

Then we FINALLY meet Amarantha, who’s way more terrifying and strategic than Feyre imagined, and we learn the full horror of what happened to Clare Beddor (spoiler: those who have weak stomachs may want to sit down). Feyre is forced to choose: complete three deadly tasks or solve a single riddle to save Tamlin, the Spring Court, and herself.

Whether you're here for badass heroine moments, metaphoric labyrinths, or morally complex villain reveals: you’re welcome and we’re sorry.
