I tandem read this book with Tower of Dawn and I can’t imagine reading it any other way. Not only was it a unique way to read, but it also made for a better reading experience. I cannot imagine reading EOS and ending on that cliffhanger only to then read TOD for 600 pages without Aelin or Rowan or the gang. 

This book was insane. I was so nervous throughout the whole thing. I somehow grew love Lorcan (????) then hate him then kind of love him again; I loved Manon more than ever; and SJM even stepped up the spice a little bit. Overall such a solid addition to the series. I’m terrified to find out how it ends.
