4.5

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!!!!

4.5

Love continuing to chart the growth and development of the characters. Felt like the magic system/general conflict got a bit looser/murkier. 

</I felt the horrific brutality of the cliffhanger was not in service of the plot or character development but will be happy to be proven wrong in the next installment. It just felt repetitive. Aelin has suffered! She has demonstrated feeling worthless and willing to sacrifice herself for her loved ones and Kingdom. I did not need this characterization graphically depicted AGAIN./>
