Similar to the book Powerless. Powerless was definitely inspired by Sara J Maas. 

I tried to start this series with the assassins blade (bad idea). This book really hooked me the first part. The middle was slow for me. The last quarter of the book went by fast. I like how Maas wrote the different perspectives and switched in the same chapter. I also liked the multiple romantic interests.

A great story. It didn't get 5 stars because I don't think I'd re-read it, and the pacing is a little slow at times. I also never found myself really excited to pick the book up strangely although I did like it when. I was reading it. 
Interested in seeing what the rest of the series is like though!

This is everything I wanted ACOTR to be. Mystery, magic, fighting, court politics. Romance is there but as a side plot. I read the novellas before this but you don't need it. Excited for the next book!

This is the best series I think Mas has made in her universe that I’ve read so far. The main character is gritty and intriguing and I couldn’t keep away from the book for long.
