4.0

This is the first book in the series where I found myself caring slightly about Celaena, even though she spends the majority of the book being insufferable. It isn't until about 2/3 of the way through that she has a breakthrough and finds herself making progress in her life. 

Having said that, I still found everyone else's stories much more interesting than Celaena's.  I'm a fan of Aedion, and the witches were a great side plot to read. 

Some of Celaena's flashback scenes were tough/emotional to read, but in the end, she gets where she needs to go. Mostly.
