I will forever love the badass female characters that Sarah J Maas creates and expresses in her novels. Celaena is such a honed weapon, and it is so cool to read the way that she works.

I absolutely loved the romance arc with Chaol, and it was my favorite thing out of this entire book. From them both trying and failing to stay on their sides of the ‘line’ Chaol drew for himself, to their cute hangouts & runs, to the birthday scene on the rooftop, I positively ate that shit up. When she turned on him after poor Nehemia’s demise, my heart broke, and it positively shattered at Chaol’s realization that nothing was ever going to be the same. I’m so happy that they’ve reconciled a little, but my heart was so full & happy when Chaol was describing her as his future wife like ughhhhhh why couldn’t we have just kept that going… I have to say I love Fleetfoot, she is so cute! And Mort, lol. How is the king so trusting?! Dummy. I’m interested in seeing how this whole magic thing goes for Dorian, and I’m so happy the three of them have had some good(?) trio scenes again that will hopefully improve and reoccur throughout the series. Anyways, I’m not prepared to watch everything fall to shit & burn, so hopefully all the other books just detail Celaena jumping off that ship, swimming back to Chaol, & them running away together to experience a million cute lovey adventures with no pain, suffering, or heartbreak. Of course, the lands & magic would just *poof* be saved before hand, but then it’ll just be lovey-dovey, right?! I unfortunately was spoiled for the grand reveal at the end, but I am very interested in seeing how this all plays out.

I really enjoyed it!

I wanted to read this book as I’ve never read any of Sarah J. Maas’s work and I was interested to see what the hype was all about. I was kindly gifted this series and A Court of Thorns and Roses by my parents. So I thought to start at the beginning. I really enjoyed the first book in this series so thought I would carry on with this series. This book was action-packed.

This book still follows seventeen-year-old Celaena Sardothien who is the royal assassin and is the King of Aralan’s deadliest weapon. She must win her freedom through his enemies’ blood. There is a slight problem though – she cannot bear to kill for the crown and so with every death Celaena fakes, every lie she tells, she is putting herself and the ones she loves at risk. She is also torn between her two protectors – a captain and a prince – and they are battling a dark force far greater than the king. Celaena must decide what she will fight for: her liberty, her heart or the fate of a kingdom. This is a young adult fantasy novel with a hint of romance.

I still bloody love Celaena – she just makes me go like “YESSS WOMEN!!” I just want her to be happy but also absolutely kick ass. I loved reading this book from the multiple point of views which were Celaena’s, Chaol’s and Dorian’s – it made the storyline interesting and kept me hooked. Also where can I get a Chaol? Please? I loved his overprotectiveness but also that he feared Celaena – I can just imagine them happy and living life somewhere remote and I really want it to happen. I would also die for Fleetfoot, I was more upset when Fleetfoot got injured than the other main characters. I’m saying this without knowing any of the events in the next books – if anything happens to Fleetfoot, I will riot.

The book left you with enough drama that it didn’t feel rushed but also left you wanting more that it keeps you hook to read the next book. I don’t believe they isn’t any weakness to this book I just don’t think it’s going to be the best of the series. I would recommend this to anyone who likes kick-ass girls, fantasy novel and dystopian novels.

Book 2 of the Throne of Glass series. This is a great continuation of the series. I truly think the best part of this book is the story between Celaena and Chaol. It is great to see their friendship and love grow. We get to see a glimps of Celaena’s past as we see characters she has once known. Celaena is battling knowing what to do and who to trust through this book. Everyone has their own agenda and tries to trust but giving only so much to those around them.

ALSO WE FIND OUT CELAENA IS FAE!

this book was so much fun, the writing has so clearly improved from the previous book and it was in so much more enjoyable and captivating. i’m glad this book expanded more on the world and gave more depth in the characters, that was done great.

but the absolute best thing about this book were definitely the twists and reveals that left me with so many questions, very exited to read the other books.
