Series: Throne of Glass

Review: Queen of Shadows ̵..

Anticipation and expectations go hand in hand when it comes to series and books we love. As a reader you spend days, weeks, months, years (sometimes), waiting for a book to come out and your expectations grow. The problem with expectations is that it is very rare that something can live up to what you build it to be in your head. I mean there is no way for what you imagine will happen to actually happen. But as a reader I have learned to make peace with that. I have learned that you need to take something for what […]

Review: Throne of Glass –..

I’m not really sure what I can say about this book that hasn’t already be said. I’m admittedly late to the party on this series and almost missed it entirely. You see, I’m not a huge fantasy reader so I skimmed by this one. That was until I was told over and over again how good it is and even non-fantasy readers have loved it. I decided to take the plunge and the book was just fantastic. The story, the characters, the writing; it was all there. Throne of Glass is about Celaena, an 18-year-old assassin that has been a […]
