Enjoyed this a lot more than the previous one, mainly the last third of the book. It really took me by surprise as I thought I’d had some of it figured out but I knew NOTHING apparently!!!! I loved it. I don’t like the way Chaol and Dorian let Celaena get between their years-long friendship - it should mean more to them than a girl they’ve just met like months ago. They also don’t seem to trust each other as much as you would think for two people who have known each other for that long. I also don’t understand why Chaol is still so loyal to the crown after everything the king has done, it makes me question what kind of person he really is..hopefully there will be some kind of redemption/explanation later
