Some of the romantic and playful interests are a bit juvenile and the treatment of royalty is not entirely expected, but the relationships formed and the adventure is carefully placed in short chapters, making much of it easily digestible.

There are a lot of problems with the books. The characters are paper thin, the "mystery" is as easy to solve as a mystery in a child's book. Celaena frankly, isn't that good of an assassin if people can keep sneaking into her room at night, etc. Those are just the more egregious problems that kept nagging at me. But, despite the problems, I enjoyed this book. It's nothing great, in fact, I would say at best, it's mediocre. It's enjoyable, though. I had fun reading it, and at the end of the day, that's good enough. 2.5/5 = Mediocre

I’m a little more judgy going into TOG having read and LOVED both ACOTAR and Crescent City. I have the advanced knowledge! I literally discovered some of my favorite characters in those series so Celaena has a lot to live up to. 

That said, I did really enjoy this book despite finding it slow at times. I was compelled to keep going because of my curiosity, the love triangle between her and Dorian and Chaol (she gets cleaned up and one shower and they’re BOTH into her? I could never) and who will triumph, as well as just knowing how much my friends love this series - all kept me reading. 

I just found the pacing a bit slower than I expected compared to the first books in the other series. But nevertheless I’m excited to keep going!
