Book/Series Review: Kingdom of Ash by Sarah J. Maas

I have enjoyed the entire series immensely and consider it one of the best fantasy stories I have ever read. The entire thing is well-paced, superbly written, wonderfully exciting, and suspenseful and the organization of the chapters, books, and series was masterfully orchestrated. I am very glad that this series was introduced to me by my friends and I am compelled to read more from Sarah J. Maas although I am afraid nothing will quite live up to the Throne of Glass series. I cried, I laughed but mostly I couldn’t stop reading. I highly recommend these books and I thought the finale was perfect.

Book Review: Crown of Midnight by Sarah J. Maas

Crown of Midnight is the second book in the Throne of Glass series by Sarah J Maas. It continues the story of Celaena Sardothien aka Elantiya, who won a contract to be the King of Adarlan’s champion, aka assassin, in the first book, Throne of Glass. Now, Celaena spends her days stalking and killing the King's enemies but what we soon discover is that she has been secretly faking their deaths and sending them away.
