Empire of Storms - Sarah J Maas (Throne of Glass #5)

Image
In Empire of Storms, our rag tag group of friends are on their way to gather an army to defeat Erawan. I loved seeing them all work together even when they were trying not to kill one another. It finally started to feel like all the pieces were coming together, right up until the ending when it all went to hell.  I don't even know how to feel about that ending. It makes me question how she is going to end this series. Will she break my heart...probably. I'm not ready but also dying to finding out. I loved seeing the interaction between all the different characters in this group. Also loved seeing some old characters come back into the story. Manon is also certainly starting to grow on me which is something I never thought I would say but here we are.  The next book in the series is told through Chaol's perspective and is a parallel novel to Empire of Storms so it looks like I will be waiting a while to see how this series wraps up. Definitely excited and nervou...

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!

Crown of Midnight - Sarah J Maas (Throne of Glass #2)

Wow what an ending! I still can't believe it! I'm dying to pick up the next book to find out what happens next in this series but I told myself I would only read on book per month of this series so it is going to be a long wait! If you are planning on reading this series don't do what I'm doing coz you will be dying to pick up the next book! Crown of Midnight follows shortly after Throne of Glass ending. Celaena has been given her first assignments for the king, kill or be killed.  Celaena is such an interesting character. An assassin who also has a conscious. She is nothing like you would expect and seems to do the unexpected so it is really interesting reading about her. You never know what she will do next. While I felt the first book had a lot more of Prince Dorian in it, this book was full of Chaol and I loved it! I love him and I definitely love him with Celaena. I do love the friendship Celaena has with Prince Dorian but I love the relationship she...

Throne of Glass - Sarah J Maas Review

So I finally got around to starting this series and I have to admit, I wish I hadn't waited so long to start. I love this series so far! It follows Celaena Sardothien, 18 year old assassin fighting for her freedom by competing to become the King's royal assassin. I loved everything about this book. I love the writing, I love the cast of characters, I love the world and of course the actual story line. Celaena is such a strong female character and I wish I was as cool as she is. I love how she can kill anyone in the blink of an eye but at the same time has a soft side and people want to protect her. Prince Dorian is the sweetest little treasure, I hope he stays that way. Chaol might have been my second favourite character because he is so much like Celaena, a badass who is a big ol softie that deserves all the hugs. Princess Nehemia was also a favourite of mine and I absolutely loved the friendship between her and Celaena and I hope it continues through the res...
