“One does not deal with Celaena Sardothien. One survives her.” 

No complaints! Loved all pov’s. Was never boring! Excited for the last couple books!
Elide and Aelin are both fearless, but in different ways. They are both strong and commanding but in different ways. And I think it become so clear when Lorcan describes Elide and it’s so clear that Rowan and Elide, and Aelin and Lorcan would never work. However, Aelin and Rowan, and Elide and Lorcan are perfect. They are the same but so different!

Tropes/Themes:
* Romance
* Multiple pov’s
* The development of relationships, platonic and romantic

I found the first half a bit slow compared to the other books and put it down and picked it up a couple times. But the last 150-200 pages had me HOOKED, could NOT put the book down. Also finally that well written SJM spice that we all love from ACOTAR shows it’s face!

Spoiler

I hated in previous books that all the characters had separate journeys with just too much dramatic irony BUT THEY ALL CONVERGE!

I loved this book! This whole series so far! 

This whole series has been up and down for me emotionally.  But this one really got me! I had tears streaming down my face at multiple points. 

100% worth the read! Read the whole series!

The ONLY reason I did not give this book a 5 star rating is because the majority of the book was very slow. Of course in Sarah J Maas fashion, the last 100 pages were INSANE!!! I was literally talking out loud to myself because I was in such disbelief. There was NO WAY I could have predicted what happened in the end. I have to read the last part of Tower of Dawn in order to finish the tandem read, but WOW. What another great installment in the Throne of Glass series. All I can say is screw Lorcan and Maeve!!! Aelin is the strongest character I have EVER known in any series, and that is an understatement. I cannot even imagine what SJM has in store for the last bit of TOD and Kingdom of Ash!!!!! WOW!!!!
