The ending is everything. It had me at the edge of my seat. The whole way through was an adventure. I love the characters. This book made me laugh and cry. It is my favorite book of the year so far.

This is the type of book and style I would expect from SJM after reading ACOTAR and Crescent City. 
Solid reads with decent plot and pacing. I can tell something good is brewing.

I liked this book more than the first (Throne of Glass). It had a more in-depth and complicated plot, but it was very confusing to me. Even in the end, when I found out

Spoiler

Celaena was really Aelin

. I feel like I need to re-read this book to fully understand it (I’m not going to). I did like the twist at the end revealing that

Spoiler

Archer was actually behind it all

. I also thought that this book was more interesting because there was more magic. It reminded me more of ACOTAR. Overall, it was good, just confusing and I need a bit more clarification when it comes to heavy plots.
