A review by megdromeda
Throne of Glass by Sarah J. Maas
5.0
I had heard this book was initially written when the author was 16 and I was VERY aware of that while reading. Not because it felt like it was written by a teenager, but because it DIDN'T feel that way. Sarah J. Maas is truly a master at her craft and as often as I was told by book-friends that I would love this novel (and all subsequent novels in the series), I was a little skeptical. But oh how wrong I was. The FMC of this novel is Celaena Sardothien and the love I had for her sass and fun-loving attitude from the very beginning made this an easy story to dive into.
The world-building so far is already something I can't wait to learn more about and with all of the characters she has had a run-in with so far I have either loved or hated, the way that we are meant to or thought that we're meant to because I had so much trouble trying to determine exactly who the main culprit of the story would be because so many of the folks in it were suspicious in their own way! It had me gripping my blankets with frustration in not being able to figure out where the story was going by myself before the ending but that in and of itself says so much about Sarah's writing and how amazing of an author she is! I loved this story and I can't wait to keep going in the series!
