Whew! Well that was fun! 

I felt like this book was trope city and reminded me of a bunch of other YA books from my highschool years. We have the competition of the hunger games, the love triangle of twilight, the royal prince having a crush on the poor girl from the selection series. Felt very nostalgic even though I’d never read it. 

It was a very easy read and the story was sweet and very easy to follow but I’m excited for it to get more interesting cause it felt very surface. I liked seeing the connection to Crescent City though with the mention of  my girl, Wyrd (Urd!)

And…. I’ve seen tik toks hating him so I know he’s probably about to flip a switch and be a D-bag that I loathe, but if I’m being honest….. right now…. I’m team KA-CHAOL! 

Idk Dorian is a little too full of himself for my liking. But also seriously how TF did ka-Chaol get the job of Captain of the Guard at 22 having never killed a man????? UNREALISTIC IF YOU ASK ME! 

Anywho, CROWN OF MIDNIGHT, YOURE UP, BABYCAKES!

A mix between the dystopian political future and terrifying challenges of the hunger games, and the magical realism of game of thrones.

Some of the romantic and playful interests are a bit juvenile and the treatment of royalty is not entirely expected, but the relationships formed and the adventure is carefully placed in short chapters, making much of it easily digestible.

There are a lot of problems with the books. The characters are paper thin, the "mystery" is as easy to solve as a mystery in a child's book. Celaena frankly, isn't that good of an assassin if people can keep sneaking into her room at night, etc. Those are just the more egregious problems that kept nagging at me. But, despite the problems, I enjoyed this book. It's nothing great, in fact, I would say at best, it's mediocre. It's enjoyable, though. I had fun reading it, and at the end of the day, that's good enough. 2.5/5 = Mediocre
