Updated on reread to 4.5 stars: I remember disliking how slow this book felt in contrast to books 1&2, but the emotional depth and character development in this book is insane and so necessary for the rest of the series.
This series just keeps getting better and better. Celaena was broken for a lot of this book, but Rowan is there to ground her. I loved all the background we got on Celaena's childhood. Plus the training sessions with Rowan were awesome!
I loved the alternating perspectives between Celaena and Rowan's story, Dorian and Chaol, and Manon and the witches. It let us know what was going on beyond what Celaena was experiencing. I'm not really sure what the purpose of Manon's story was/is, but I trust that it will become apparent in the next book.
Overall this book was everything I wanted and now I need the next one.
“Run. And when you come back...when you come back, burn this place to the ground. “
There's a dagger through my heart in the shape of this book.
:) :) :)
Who let me reread this? You're fired.
This book took a different turn as the main character was sent to a new continent. It introduced interesting new characters and filled in much more of the story behind the old characters.
One of the new POV character, the witch, was not someone I immediately liked, cared about, or wanted to read about, but by the end I was invested in her story as well.
