A very good finale, although the start was let down by following on from the previous book’s cruelly horrific cliffhanger. Nevertheless, it picked up very quickly and gave all the great characters fitting stories to use and deepen them.

My name is Hailey Friggin Williams.

And I will not be afraid…. 

CAUSE IVE OFFICIALLY FINISHED READING THROUGH THE SJM UNIVERSE AND I DON’T KNOW HOW TO COPE WITH IT😭

Holy shit monkeys. WOW. Just… wow…. 

I feel like I adored all of the SJM sagas but Throne of Glass really got me feeling lots of feelings. It was a slow burn love story between me and the series because it started off being real meh and turned into one of my all time fav series. I loved it. Seriously. I’m gonna force anyone who will listen to me to read it. 

Onto Kingdom of Ash in particular: 

This finale was epic. So much heart was put into it and the war and chaos and grief aspects were beautifully done. For a series with a crazy amount of characters, all of their stories were all lovingly ended and tied with a bow. Even Aedion, whom I shan’t punch. (I’ve forgiven his antics) 

The sense of peace and hope this book ended with… TEARS!!! So many tears were shed throughout, though. And even though I believe the ending was perfect I STILL WANT MORE DAMMIT! 

I want an entire epilogue book that’s written 10 years in the future cause I wanna check on everybody and see how they’re all doing! They deserve a happy book like ACOTAR got with frost and starlight. 

In conclusion, I’m gonna miss these characters very very much. 

Anywho, I’m distraught. Bye. ✌️
