The only thing all the intended disorientation had accomplished was to familiarize her with the building. Idiots.
This line still makes me smile, even so many years after first writing it!. It’s such classic Celaena/Aelin—showing her smarts, her training, but also her sass. One of the things I love most about her is that she’s a survivor, and at this point, she’s just spent a year in one of the worst places imaginable.

So even though this line makes me laugh, it also reminds me of her strength and will to survive against all odds. It’s strange, because even though she’s a character in my head, I still find myself

"Bad cover aside, the very first sentence is missing a comma ("Wake up sleepy head"); not to mention, it's a run-on, using a comma splice instead of a semi-colon or period.
"Voice" is used twice within the first paragraph. "Fly" is used FOUR times wit" Read more of this review » |

“Hope is a demon. It convinces you to believe in something better, persuades you the outcome will be favorable, and whispers eagerly in your ear that the miracle you so desperately need will happen. Then it crushes you. Hope only leaves you fallen and bleeding in its aftermath, nothing more than a pile of misery and desolation.”

“Fine?” Joseph chimed in. “Obviously not. You need to be checked out by a doctor.”
“I am a doctor.” I rolled my eyes at him, but that didn’t deter him from his train of thought.
“Not that kind of doctor.”
“What is ‘that kind of doctor’ going to say when they see my shimmering pink blood, Joseph?” I changed my voice to mimic one of a concerned doctor. “I’m sorry ma’am, you appear to be suffering from a mild case of Pretty Pretty Princess syndrome. Have you ingested any magical woodland faeries recently?”

“What was that?” I croaked.
Akhol sidestepped into my view and towered over us. “It was a Demon.”
“But you said—”
“I know what I said,” Akhol cut in sharply, rubbing his eyes. “There was something wrong with it. Like the Demon
had adapted to the darkness and water.”
I shivered. “Did he have a ring that he called ‘my precious’?” I joked to try and lighten the mood. I didn’t get a good
look at the Demon, but my mind had no problems picturing Gollum.
