“He leaned against the table, a hand on his sword. At least one of them remembered that they were alone together in the library.”
I just finished the second book in this series Crown of Midnight which was utterly fantastic, so I decided to spotlight the first book Throne of Glass by Sarah J. Maas. If you haven’t picked it up, I highly recommend it.
From my review:
“Celaena Sardothien, the famed assassin, has been imprisoned for a year in the slave mines of Endovier. Freedom seems an impossible scenario until the Crown Prince of Adarlan pays her a visit. He offers her a deal on behalf of the King. The King of Adarlan is hosting a competition and whoever remains standing in the end will be his Champion, his personal assassin. If Celaena wins, she will serve the king for four years and then be set free. As the competition begins, Celaena finds herself caught in a battle of wills and not just with the other competitors. The contest takes a more dangerous turn when a contestant is found murdered and Celaena discovers there is something even more dangerous in the castle than herself.” You can find my full review here.
Makes me want to know what happenes next!

I really loved Throne of Glass and The Crown of Midnight, so I just had to check out your review. It was amazing and definitely did the book justice. I cannot wait for Heir of Fire!
