A review by purple_reads
Crown of Midnight by Sarah J. Maas

3.0

The beginning of this book had me gripped; the action was great and I found that there wasn’t something not interesting to read about.

As the story progressed it started to wobble in terms of excitement. There were moments that had me wanting more and moments that had me bored. I enjoyed it but it just wasn’t the best.

I did love getting to see more of Celeana and she is one of my favourite Maas characters. Watching her be a badass is amazing.

The relationships between the three main protagonists are interesting and quite heartbreaking. I think Maas did a good job at making them realistic.

The ending was great - I’m sad but also excited.

Something that did irk me though was the comment about how Chaol would make fun of Celeana for wearing a scarf around her head. This feels like an attack on some religions and this should’ve been edited out because it’s unacceptable to be in a book (or any book) that can easily influence young reader’s opinions.
