This was a good book, even though I did find the politics boring but I did find the schemes and plots going around very well done and kept me interested. Yet I must admit that I did find the Nameless One very disappointing though. However if you like a fantasy that a bite sized game of thrones just prettier then this is for you. It just was not my cup of tea, sorry!

"Let there be lesbians" said samanta shannon
IM ABOUT TO LOSE.MY MIND.
this book was everything i could ask for in a fantasy ??? the book itself might look like a behemoth but by the time i got to the end i was wishing it was longer. i absolutely fell in love with the world shannon created. ive read reviews where ppl said they couldnt like the characters. NO@! I loved all pf them. Niclays roos they could never make me hate uou. I love you sabran the ninth and ead and tané and nayimathun and loth and truyde. 
The only criticism I have is that I feel like the "big fight" at the and could maybe be a littlee longer. 

"we'll get married after the war" I KNEW IR. I KNEW THAT MAN WOULD NOT SURVIVE RHE WAR. also the ending with niclays and alaifine or whatever her name is made me cry fr.
