A Court of Thorns and Roses by Sarah J. Maas
Feyre is hunting to feed her family, but she wishes she could just hang out and paint. Under her huntress exterior lays the heart of an artist. This first chapter actually reads a bit like the Hunger Games, but it seems pretty unfair to complain just because a different female character is hunting.
She’s about to kill a doe, but a massive wolf attacks it. Feyre isn’t sure if the wolf is a faerie or an animal because it’s ‘the size of a pony’, but just in case, she kills it using an ash arrow that she just happened to buy last year (ash is deadly to Faeries).
For a moment, I wished I had it in me to feel remorse for the dead thing. But this was the forest, and it was winter.
Girl means business.
We also find out that sometimes Feyre hooks up with Isaac, but he’s nothing special. I actually really dug that this story has a protagonist that isn’t a virgin and never apologizes for it (nor did anyone ever try to make her feel like she should apologize for it.) No time is wasted with Feyre pining over Isaac as though there’s a chance in hell she will wind up with his human ass.
