Just completed another in the Throne of Glass series - Queen of Shadows by Sarah J. Maas. Overall, I enjoyed this book. However, some of the plot twists are predictable, particularly after I read Maas' last series, Court of Thorns. There were a few interesting characters added, and I particularly like the witches. Definitely worth reading! 4 stars

Just completed another book in the Throne of Glass series - Empire of Storms by Sarah J. Maas. Overall, I liked this book. It was a good continuation of the story, and I liked some of the twists. However, what I've found with Maas' writing is that when she's in the midst of bringing her stories together deep in the series, she sometimes forgets to make connections between events. That can be frustrating for the reader. I hope the next book is a bit clearer during the action. Overall, definitely worth reading! 4 stars

Just completed another book in the Throne of Glass series - Tower of Dawn by Sarah J. Maas. Really enjoyed this addition to the series. I might have been a tad annoyed if I had waited a year for the next book, as it doesn't quite pick up from the last book. But this book returned to the charm and wonder of the first book in this series. Definitely worth reading! 4.5 stars

Just started a new series - The Glittering Court by Richelle Mead. Good, solid book. Entertaining but there was a measure of incredulity too that kept me from fully connecting. Worth reading. 3.5 stars
