[close] Why not this book? I can't believe it isn't already on the list. I joined this group to find other amazing stories and authors. Sarah j. Maas is my all time favorite author. I promise you'll fall in love with the character Celaena. I've been captivated by this story since Assassin's Blade.

After a lot of recommendations from people on some fantasy book groups that I am in I decided to by this TOG box set on Amazon and start making my way through this series since I loved the A Court of Thorns And Roses series and Crescent City. A lot of readers in my fantasy book groups like this series better than the ACOTAR series. Many say it has a fabulous story line. After reading Assassins Blade then Throne of Glass, I am very happy that I have made the decision to start reading this series.

After reading Assassins Blade then Throne of Glass, I am very happy that I have made the decision to start reading this series. I really enjoyed this book. I will disagree with some and say this book kept my attention the whole book and it was hard for me to put down. I was invested on figuring out what will happen next with these characters because I know that Sarah J. Maas has a habit of taking things in a different direction and surprising her readers. I am very excited to jump to the next book stay on this rollercoaster ride to see what happens next to the Celaena. Calaena is a masterful Assassin. I love her character. She is a very strong no nonsense female lead. She is smart and skilled. I can't wait to see what all happens with her throughout this series. I will say that I am very happy that I read Assassins Blade before reading Throne of Glass. I highly recommend any new reader to this series to read it first. Assassins blade is a book of Novellas that gives Celaena back story before you start reading Throne of Glass. Assassins Blade will let you know more about how she came to be The Best Assassin. There are characters she deals with in her backstory that are mentioned in Throne of Glass. I had a better connection to Celaena because I had read Assassins Blade. This book is a series book however the ending didn't leave you in a big cliffhanger, but it left you wanting more. The author was young when she wrote this book so her writings are noticeably better with her current books, but this story is so far amazing in my opinion. Now I am off to continue reading this series with Book 2 (or book 3 if you your read Assassins Blade first) Called Crown of Midnight. ...more

If you’re looking for entertainment in fantasy this is a light-hearted read. Not dense or serious plot, but it’s a fun romp with pretty dresses, murder, and forbidden magic.

Interesting premise for a novel so I was really excited for it but unfortunately not a lot happened. Probably won’t continue on to the next book in the series.
