It was just so slow and boring and didn’t really care to find out all the characters’ secrets 🤷‍♀️

Dang man

The ending of this book was busy! And I liked it 

It got better and better as it went on

And I liked the third person perspective a lot

Had me emotional in some parts! 

Love that the story is far bigger than just a love story 

Impressed. Now give me Azriel plz

Immediately poorly written when the detective was called to a crime scene and grabbed the dead body with no gloves or an expert to check the scene first

It’s the audiobook, and I just wanna walk around with music, not someone speaking in a fake French accent lolol but I could tell that I think I would actually like the book!

• Definitely a LOT more entertaining

• Still, SJM’s writing style is not my thing. Sometimes things aren’t clear or concise enough, especially during action scenes 
EXAMPLE: No one spoke. No one. It was dead silent. And yet there was a wave, a presence of power sliding into the room. 
I literally just made that up right now, and yet I know it looks like a direct quote 😂 

• I wonder if an important character is gonna die cuz when Rhysand “died”, I immediately knew he wasn’t actually going to die 

• The only part that actually surprised me was when Elain killed the king 

• The two very tiny chapters from Rhysand’s POV…why? 😂They didn’t add much, babes 

• I am curious about A Court of Silver Flames because I feel like Nesta and Cassian’s love will be more entertaining 

• I wonder if the writing in Throne of Glass is different or better. I’ve been hearing a lot of good things about the series recently 

• Only two more to go! I am gonna read Frost and Starlight
