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!

This book slapped! There was so much going on, and the storytelling was so expertly crafted. I loved getting to learn about these characters, especially our main character, and learn more about the world they inhabit. I can't believe this is the first book in a series and that it only goes up from here--this was already so good! Anyways, you can all call me the fool for not reading this sooner, I won't mind because you'd be right. I'm not a big fantasy person usually, but this world is very easily understandable and although it takes place in a different world and there's magic, I never felt really lost in understanding the dynamics of the world (perhaps because it mirrors our own so well re: colonization (yikes)). I could say a lot more, but I still need to organize my thoughts honestly--soo much happened that there's a lot to consider. Excited for the next one!

The first book I read in the TOG series. So much fun and always such loveable characters. I'm so excited to see where this story goes.

An assassin, a bunch of thieves, and ex military personnel have to battle it out to become the king’s champion (aka the kings assassin). During this drawn out battle, someone seems to be targeting the contenders, leading to violent deaths. This book fits in the mystery, fantasy, dystopian, and romance genres!
