Similar to the book Powerless. Powerless was definitely inspired by Sara J Maas. 

I tried to start this series with the assassins blade (bad idea). This book really hooked me the first part. The middle was slow for me. The last quarter of the book went by fast. I like how Maas wrote the different perspectives and switched in the same chapter. I also liked the multiple romantic interests.

 How in the world did I wait so long to read this book?!?!?This was a fantastic read! This was action packed and exciting. I loved Celaena as a lead character. She’s strong, a little prickly,and thinks for herself. I enjoyed the overall mystery of the storyline and the magic. If you didn’t really jive with ACOTAR like me, I would highly encourage you to try ToG. I can’t wait to read the next book in this series!

This book was unlike anything I could have imagined. After reading ACOTAR, I resisted TOG thinking it was just some “warrior girl in armor fighting battles” but it was way more than that. 

There’s romance, flirting, friendship, trials, mystery and magic. 
Celaena was perfectly human (even though she was an assassin), she had feelings and urges. She has rational train of thought that made us love her, and love the people she loved. 

The trials were incredible and the mystery continues. 
We still don’t know who to root for, or who to hate. 

The book ends on a cliff hanger that leaves us hungry for more. I can’t wait to start the next book!
