The Assassin's Blade - Sarah J Maas Review

The Assassin's Blade comprises of 5 novellas set before the Throne of Glass series stars. While this is supposed to be read before Throne of Glass I'm glad that I waited to read it part way through the series as I feel like I know who Celeana is and it's interesting to see a little of how she got to be who she was. I feel that if I had read it before the first book I would have been confused.  Through the 5 novellas you get to meet Sam, Celeana's first love and how they went from hate to love. You also find out more about Arobynn and his character. There is also a cast of characters as she travels from remote islands to the red desert, some that you will love and some that you will hate.  This book is a whirlwind of emotions and I can't wait to continue on with the series!

The last quarter of the book was a wild slightly dark ride indeed! It had me on the edge of my seat wondering what was going to happen next and I definitely couldn't put the book down and it was not what I was expecting but I loved it! The best part of this story is how throughout the book Mallor

Here is my belated March wrap-up. I read the most books this year in the month of March and even managed to fit in a book for my O.W.L.s TBR thanks to the extra reading days I got for the extra credit charms I did last year. Here are the books I plan on reading in April. I only have O.W.L.s books at this stage as I don't think I will have time to read anything else this month .
