My favorite part of this book was all of the connecting plot lines finally coming together. We got to see a lot of previous characters resurface and see how they mesh into the story.

The first part of the book was slow, but in Maas style, the last like 30% of the book had me in a chokehold. There were so many twists that I didn't see coming.
I have not been a huge fan of Aelin throughout the series and that attitude continued through most of this book. I found her to be pretty immature and impulsive. BUT I was proven wrong in the last part of this book. Behind the scenes and behind everyone's backs (even her own group) she was plotting some genius moves. We don't get to see how she navigates the world like a chessboard, moving everything perfectly in place, it's all behind the scenes, not reveleaed until
Manon is quickly becoming one of my favourite characters. I am very excited to see her
I highly recommend reading this in Tandem with Tower of Dawn as the two stories overlap! So much was revealed about Maeve in Tower of Dawn, so I think the tandem reading made it reading this book much more suspenseful!
