Omg! Did this series get REALLY good!!! Sarah J Maas seems to start her series off simple with minimum characters & world building & their good. But once she’s a book or 2 in, she like let’s loose! Quadruples the amount of characters, makes the world so much bigger, and just lets all the drama and problems unfold. & I have to say it is a brilliant strategy. You don’t necessarily get fully hooked to the story in the beginning, but she’s not throwing a lot of stuff at you at once. If I started this book without having already known some of the characters, I don’t know if I would have been able to follow along and remember who all the players are. But having been brought into the story slowly, I followed it so easy, and I am thankful for that!
This book was incredible! I can’t wait for the rest of the series & to hopefully meet even more amazing characters!

I felt like the beginning of the book dragged a bit, but as always with sjm books the second half of the book was a whirlwind. I thought the progression of the story was interesting, and am eager to pick up the next book in the series.

Omg!!!! It's picking back up!!! 

Unfortunately, I can't give this book a full 5 stars because the first half is quite a bit boring. But the second half makes up for it tenfold. 

First and foremost, I love Rowan. He was really mean to her at the beginning but they made it up to each other pretty well. Also, page 315... in tears. And I absolutely loved his loyalty to her by the end of the book. Made me so happy and proud and giddy. 

I love how strong Aelin has become. The part about her nurse made had me in tears, no child should go through such horrors. She is such a powerful, wonderful FMC, and I can't wait to see how er character continues to grow throughout the series. 

And last, but not least, the Aedion/Dorian/Chaol section... Absolutely has me in an anxious wreck. They better survive or else I stg.

Cannot wait to start QoS! Getting through CoM for this was absolutely worth it!!!
