This was a captivating fantasy novel with a large focus on character development. The protagonist, Celaena, undergoes significant growth, and the supporting characters add depth to the story. The deliberate pacing allows for a deeper exploration of the world and its intricate political intrigue. While I did find it slow, the book is far from boring, with unexpected twists and intense moments. 

I’m not a fan of Celaena’s various allies throughout the book, but it’s not annoying enough to discontinue reading the series.
