The Assassin's Blade by Sarah J. Maas
5.0
Lets put it lightly and say that I’m not okay.
I knew it was coming, I knew what was awaiting at the end of this book and that made everything so much worse.
I didn’t believe that you could like Sam that much in 400 pages but damn SJM really threw a lot of „we have all the time in the world“ in there. And every single time one of them said it I wanted to scream at them and beg them to stop, to change the course of this storyline.
I don’t think I’ve ever read a prequel where I knew it would hurt (Four from divergent does Hartley count I can’t remember a single thing that happened in that novel). And I’m still not sure if I would tell people to read this first or to start with ToG because while this sure as hell is fully spoiled if you read the 7 books it feels like it hurt so much more reading it now. Because I knew it was coming and with every page I was nearer to it, it made me want to DNF the book and I think I’m thankful that I read the series first because I’m a sucker for that gutwrenching pain this gave me.
I miss the times where there were ToG books I hadn’t read.
