Wow!!! What an crazy, twisting ride this was!!!!  I absolutely loved this one! I felt like it started out slow and to be honest, I did NOT like Rowan in the beginning. The witch story seemed to start out a little slow, but I knew the details were building up to something good! I'm also blown away about the towers and their connection and how it ties in to magic disappearing! And when Dorian revealed his magic to the king, I nearly threw the book because I thought for sure the King was going to kill him!!! I cried over Sorscha's death!! Like why...😪🤧😭 I was loving the whole forbidden love side story. And of course she died... Oh man, when I say I was a mess...😭😪🤧 I felt like she was a good healer, not only for his body but also good for helping him heal his soul after all he's been dealing with!!!😭 Loved almost learning more about Celaena's background and family... I was hit with all the feelings... And to watch her start to slowly accept her true self and to become bolder, oh MAN! Emrys and Luca were also fantastic characters! I enjoyed the history and enjoyed even more watching Celaena bravely face her crazy, psychopath Aunt! And what she did for Rowan and how they bonded slowly over time was enjoyable. It was comical how they went from hating each other to slowly bonding and growing closer!! At first, it seemed like he was inclined to hate her and not help her in the slightest! But they both change and evolve so much! Given that they've both been through hell, they complement each other and help each other grow very well.
Such a fantastic read!!
