Throne of Glass by Sarah J. Maas
4.0
3.75/5
Having just finished the first 3 books in the Court of Thorns and Roses series, I thought I'd give Maas's first series a try too.
While A Court of Thorns and Roses was so addictive that I ended up devouring the entire series in the matter of days, I think Throne of Glass is a better novel. The story is more complex and while there are hints of romance, that's not really the driving force behind the book.
Celaena deserves a special mention of her own: she is wonderful, and quite possibly my favourite aspect of the book. I can't wait to see how her character develops as the series progresses.
It'll be interesting to see if the rest of this series improves as much as Thorns and Roses did. I have high hopes!
