Yeah, it is an entertaining book, but most of it is just boring words and stories that we already know about. The only interesting part that I truly enjoyed was The Assassin and The Desert and part of me wishes that it ended with her just remembering her story and going to Endovier instead of getting this weak teenager love story.
Also, there’s more chemistry between me and doing homework than between Sam and Celaena.
I must add that I’m getting incredibly tired and frustrated by the vomiting. Like once or twice sure go off BUT EVERY BOOK HAS AT LEAST A MENTION OF VOMIT and I’m not someone that gets the icky feeling when reading/seeing vomit but I’m TIRED that SJM doesn’t have other ways of describing disgust aside from “x person vomited” or “I vomited” like tf
Oh! Can we all get to the conclusion that Celaena’s hatred towards Lysandra is mostly —if not completely— internalised misogyny?
If Queen of Shadows is as boring as the past two books, I’m literally going to cry.
