This is by FAR the easiest 5 star I have given to a book. From start to finish, each quote, each twist in the story, each character introduction and arc, each new location, each plot development… perfection.
Queen Of Shadows had me UNDERSTANDING why this series truly has so much hype, because this is the first series I have ever ranked higher than ACOTAR, frankly.
SJM is a genius, frankly. The way she can make you love a hated character, hate a character you loved, insert all those hints about Aelin setting up Aedion’s escape and the kings death… I will buy ANYTHING she ever writes from now on🤍
