PS.. I am shipping Dorian and Celaena soooo hard right now <3

[Maddie]

Yeah I love them too <3

[Natalie]

Chapters 46-48

(view spoiler)[ Chaol telling Celaena to get up!! <3 Dammit!! Now I don't know who I ship XD Oh and Kaltain is a total biotch (hide spoiler)]

[Maddie]

XD I love reading your thoughts.

[Natalie]

Finished
(view spoiler)[ But... But.... She just cut Dorian off like that. He was so sweet and caring. Plus he gave her a puppy. But then Chaol is also sweet and caring. He gave her a ring... so Calaena basically chose a ring over a puppy. smh. Hopefully we'll get some more Dorian action in Crown of Midnight ;)

Elena said that blood calls to blood so does that mean that Celaena is somehow related to her? And what's with the rune (Oops. I just finished watching Shadowhunters) WYRDMARK (but doesnt rune sound way cooler?) on her eyebrow?

The king is a slimeball. He knew about wyrdmarks all along and knew what Perrington was doing. SMH (hide spoiler)]

[Maddie]

Yeah xD

[Natalie]

Chapter 1
(view spoiler)[ I think I'm gonna like Celaena more in the prequels than TOG. She seems to act more like the bad ass assassin she's supposed in this first chapter that she ever did in TOG. She seemed more edgy and willing to kill everyone. I like it! Also curious about how the hate between her and Sam is going to turn into love XP (hide spoiler)]

[Maddie]

Exactly haha so good

[Maddie]

82% (view spoiler)[I was right.

Holy shit I'd be soooo mad if I was Aedion and Rowan! Why does she keep them in the dark?? She's so selfish when they give her all of themselves, and look what she does!? (hide spoiler)]

[Maddie]

86% (view spoiler)[Once again we're kept in the dark with Rowan's plans... I'm not sure if I like that or not. Makes things so much more confusing, but also super plot twists!

Where did this attraction between Dorian and Manon come from??

And I love Elide and Lorcan <3 (hide spoiler)]

[Maddie]

91% (view spoiler)[Typical that there's yet another plan we don't know about, how to end it all! (hide spoiler)]

[Natalie]

Chapters 2-4
(view spoiler)[ Celaena's supposed to be Arobynn's right hand gal but he sure does seem to keep a lot of stuff from her. She's so full of herself too. Like, no one cares about what you look like it's not that big of a deal. You don't need to go around in a cape and mask like Micheal Myers. Side note: I can't wait for that movie!!

Oh and covering the window is not necessary. No one is going to come stalk you in the middle of the night and peep through your window...

Despite all of my yakking I really do like this novella
(hide spoiler)]

[Natalie]

Chapters 5-8
(view spoiler)[ So Celaena and and Sam basically just wrestled in the ocean with little clothes?? Anyone else find this a little bit weird.

What in the world is this plan? I'm soooo confused. The slaves are going to sail a ship, but what about the Captain and the guards? And how did Celaena expect a string bean dude to ROW across to the other boat and THEN COME BACK? And did they really expect this plan to work? (hide spoiler)]

[Natalie]

Finished
(view spoiler)[ You go Celaena!! I love it when she proves the douche bag dudes wrong when they underestimate her. It was interesting to see how Sam and Celaena went to hating each other's guts to KINDA tolerating each other and being sorta friends. (hide spoiler)]

[Natalie]

Chapters 1-2
(view spoiler)[ I love seeing Celaena fighting for other people and for what's right. She might say she's a cold assassin, but she does fight for the people that need it.

Arobynn is a butthole for sending her to the desert just for SAVING slaves. (And for having a weird name that I have to look up to make sure I spelled it right XD) Get over it butthole. You shouldn't have bought people in the first place. (hide spoiler)]

[Maddie]

Yay updates :D

[Natalie]

Chapter 3-4

(view spoiler)[ Celaena seems so lost :( Where's the head strong cocky assassin that we all know and love? I really like Yrene. They need to be friends.......


OH and what happened to Sam :( (hide spoiler)]

[Natalie]

Maddison wrote: "Yay updates :D"

My choppy and all over the place updates XD

[Maddie]

XD I love them

[Natalie]

Chapter 5
(view spoiler)[ Um... Celaena has some screws loose XP (hide spoiler)]

[Natalie]

Finished
(view spoiler)[ Ok maybe she's not that crazy. She was actually kind. But it was sad because I think Celaena saw her crushed dreams in Yrene.
I liked the pirate one better... :) (hide spoiler)]

[Ari ☾]

(The Assassin and the Desert):
(view spoiler)[I thought this one was pretty boring in all honesty. It had a nice twist ending though, which I didn't see coming and I should have.

I liked Ansel and I loved the Red Desert setting.

Also I love Celaena's old attitude. She is so sassy. I mean she still is, but she's been so hardened in later novels. (hide spoiler)]

[Maddie]

Was meant to finish Empire of Storms today and start Tower of Dawn. Will get there tomorrow though!

[Natalie]

Chapters 1 and 2
(view spoiler)[ GUILTY??!?!!!! She feels GUILTY for getting blood on his carpet WHILE HE’S BEATING THE CRAP OUT OF HER???!!!! Girl, you should be pissed at him for beating you, NOT GUILTY.

The Mute Master seems like a nice dude.... maybe... But I don’t know why he would choose not to talk. I like talking way to much XD (hide spoiler)]

[Natalie]

Chapters 3-5

(view spoiler)[ I love Ansel and Ilias! Why can’t they be in the series 😭😭 I just love them all!

It’s intresting to see Celaena finally get knocked down a peg and be the underdog XD

OH and how in the world can they handle the heat in the middle of the freakin desert?? I can barely handle 80 XD (hide spoiler)]

[Maddie]

I finished Empire of Storms!! Need to update now and then I'll be starting Tower of Dawn for a bit before work.

[Natalie]

Chapter 6
(view spoiler)[ GIRL POWER!!!!

Ansel and Celaena are friendship goals 😍😍

Her story is soo sad 😢I just wanna giver her a hug. (hide spoiler)]

[Maddie]

Finished! (view spoiler)[Oh wow she took the blood oaths from Lorcan and Gavriel!! At least now Lorcan can be with Elide <3 I'm really hoping he didn't actually betray them all on purpose :(

I can't believe that they were married, Aelin and Rowan!

And I am sooo glad that Rowan managed to turn all the cousins! When I read that and they all ended up on the good side, heart stopped. Again. Holy wow I need KoA! (hide spoiler)]

Review: Wooooooooowwwwwwwww this book was holy rutting gods incredible!!!!!!!!!! There was always stuff happening, and it was just freaking amazing! Once again, not too keen on how Maas is always springing surprises on us, but then it does also lend to the story :p Keeps things interesting. Just feel like we're missing out on a lot of back story.

I like how there was never a dull moment, but didn't like how everyone started getting together. It was a rather lusty book, and that put me off a little. So typical, I could see everyone's pairs before they even happened. But I did like how (view spoiler)[Aelin didn't just end up with Chaol, like the first book, and how she's had other lovers before Rowan. (hide spoiler)] I don't really want to go into spoilers, because otherwise this'll turn into a bloody essay, so I'll just say that there were a lot of plot twists. Sooo glad I re-read this book before Kingdom of Ash next week!!

[Maddie]

Chapter 2 (view spoiler)[Why did Nesryn's family leave? If the place is so amazing?

All of these new characters at once are confusing me!

I do love the idea of riding giant eagles though, much more than wyverns! (hide spoiler)]

[Natalie]

Chapters 7-9
(view spoiler)[ WTF!!!! Just as I was starting to really like Ansel SHE DRUGS CELAENA?!??? They are NOT friend goals. They’re the opposite of friend goals. Friend DONT’S. Friends NOT FRIENDS.

OH and why in the world did she turn away for Ilias?

DOUBLE OH Sam said he would kill Arobynn for Celaena 😍😍 They need to find eachother. But I don’t know about how they went from hating each other’s guts to randomly starting to have feelings for each other.... (hide spoiler)]

[Maddie]

Yeah I know right!

You're powering through these novellas!

[Christine]

Hello everyone! I just joined the group and this will be my first time reading I should be receiving my books in the mail today, so hoping to catch up with everyone... =)

[Natalie]

Finished
(view spoiler)[ Celaena should just stay at the Silent Assassins. The Mute Master is wayyyyy better then Arobynn. But she needs to find Sam.

This one is definitely my favorite novella so far. It had more of an actual story than the others. (hide spoiler)]

[Maddie]

Oh wow nice Christine! And good luck catching up XD Although we are all at different spots!

[Natalie]

Chapter 1

(view spoiler)[ I SWEAR TO GOD CELAENA IF YOU FORGIVE HIM......

AND WHO IS THIS LYSANDRA BISH! I like her every less that’s Kaltain WHICH IS SAYING SOMETHING

SAM 😍😍 But if he’s been ok this whole time and didn’t try to come after Celaena then IMA BE PISSED (more pissed than I already am 😂) (hide spoiler)]

[Maddie]

Is this your first ToG book Natalie?

[Natalie]

Yep :)

[Maddie]

12% (view spoiler)[Why does Yrene hate Adarlan so much? Have I missed something..?

I'm confused with all of the new characters. And all of her females are so similar! But I do adore Yrene <3 Her frankness XD (hide spoiler)]

[Maddie]

Exciting!

[Maddie]

21% (view spoiler)[Wow I love the idea of the bells that ring when the water drips on them!!

Finally some identification of time! I thought all the books were hand-written, but here it says that they are printed using the press. (hide spoiler)]

[Maddie]

31% (view spoiler)[Eh this book's pretty boring to me. I know things haven't started happening yet, but I'm just not that interested right now. I like the relationship blooming between Yrene and Chaol, but I hate how she was so oblivious to his humiliation during the lesson. How they handled him getting off that horse, made me mad! (hide spoiler)]

[Ari ☾]

(The Assassin in the Underworld) -
(view spoiler)[I really enjoyed this one! It was super fun, I liked seeing Celaena in action.

I also did a no no and fell in love with Sam.

Also I have noticed, Sam is like the only one with a regular name? (hide spoiler)]

[Maddie]

42% (view spoiler)[I really wish Chaol and Nesryn would just say that they want just friendship... I like her and Sartaq, and Yrene and Chaol. So glad we also get more of Yrene from Assassin's Blade <3

I'm just mad because I legit read my first spoiler for ToD a few weeks ago, and because I knew nothing, I didn't know that Yrene was in this, and I was so mad when I read that... (hide spoiler)]

[Natalie]

OK, time out. Why in the world did she get SO caught up in the music? Yeah, sometimes music can make people emotional. But not like that

“The music broke her apart and put her back together, only to fend her asunder again and again.”

“She felt it along her skin, along her bones.”

“As the final note swelled, a gasp broke from her, setting the tears in her eyes spilling down her face”

UMMM 😳
This whole page was so cringy😂

[Ari ☾]

(The Assassin and the Empire) :
(view spoiler)[Oh my god this novella was so good. I fell in love with Sam, and I regretted it. I knew these things would happen. I knew these betrayals would happen. Yet they still destroyed my soul.

The part where Celaena went to Sam's body honestly killed me and I will never be over it. (hide spoiler)]

[Maddie]

“The music broke her apart and put her back together, on..."

In her defense I do get a bit like that when I listen to my favourite pieces of music, but it's definitely not that intense XD I do feel the music very strongly, but not as if it's breaking me apart and then putting me back together XD And I don't gasp when I listen XD Sometimes I might have tears though :p

[Dr. Andy]

Ch. 11 (view spoiler)[ Oh god the valg are after Yrene!! I hope she can heal Chaol and stay safe!! I'm glad Yrene decided to help heal Chaol too, I didn't know if she would be convinced to do it at first. Hopefully she'll come to realize that Chaol isn't as horrible as the King. He's really not the villain in the story. I wonder if Nesryn will get any answers from Sartaq. I think I like him the best of the siblings so far. (hide spoiler)]

CH. 28 (view spoiler)[ I SMELL NEW SHIPS FORMING!!! Also I am so excited that Yrene took those books, I hope she and Chaol manage to bring them back to Aelin. I have a feeling they'll be important especially the Ellywe book and the wyrdmark scroll. I'm so proud Chaol is finally letting Yrene in AND HE CAN FEEL HIS FEET!! I hope he doesn't let Nesryn's choice to leave get in the way of his healing/what's happening between him and Yrene. (hide spoiler)]

ch. 42 (view spoiler)[ HOLY FUCK CHAOL FUCKING WALKED1!! YASSS. Also my ships are sailing and I am ecstatic. Also Chaol really hates himself and he is described like a predator or wolf so much that it's kind of intimidating. SJM also keeps saying how large he is and I'm just like what!?! this is baby kale we are talking about lmao. Kale is all grown up now. These fucking spiders are assholes, I hope they kill a bunch of them for killing the hatchling. Urgh (hide spoiler)]

Finished (view spoiler)[ Okay I love Nesryn and Sartaq so damn much. That last chapter from Nesryn when she was reunited with her family was literally perfect. I had tears in my eyes and my throat was burning. BUT ALSO MAEVE IS A FUCKING VALG AND WHY AM I NOT SURPRISED THAT FUCKING BITCH. God I am so emotionally exhausted after that ending. Someone fucking send help. I need to see Falkan and Lysandra's reunion RIGHT TF NOW (hide spoiler)]

[Maddie]

Naw where were the updates as you went through Andrea!

[Maddie]

50% (view spoiler)[Oh wow that's one of my worst fears, being stalked like that! (hide spoiler)]

[Maddie]

59% (view spoiler)[What is a hearth-family? Is it like a clan-family? (hide spoiler)]
