What The Assassin's Blade did for setting the tone of Celaena's character development, Throne of Glass has done for the tone of the entire series. I think that it developed at a great pace without feeling rushed and had all of my favorite elements of an SJM book including the most delicious tension-building that one could ask for. I am squealing with delight over the fact that I have six more books to read in this series!
Similarly to how ACOTAR progressed and my emotional interest in characters grew to include more than Feyre, I'm now not only invested in Celaena's story but also the stories of her friends. As the series progresses, I cannot wait to see how certain relationships – both good and bad – pan out.
