Amaaazing!!!

So fun!! If you like Throne of Glass, this book is a MUST! I could not put it down. There is suspense, jealosy, beauty, wisdom, and a thrilling plot to wrap it all up. Buy it!!!!

Finished it in a day!

From the very beginning, I was intrigued by the title of the book and even more so once the title was explained. Throughout the development of the plot, events kept relating back to the title. I was always eager to start the next chapter just to see what would happen next and promptly bought the remaining books in the trilogy. The book had a Romeo and Juliet feel to it without seeming like a cliched adaptation. All in all, an entertaining read.

Amazing plot twists

I just finished this book and I cannot wait to start the next book to see where every thing is going. There were so many plot twists throughout that I didn't want to put down the book. It was an exciting read that made you question every thing going on. The characters were very well written and weren't one sided at all. Every character had depth and made you torn on whether you liked them or not, if they were the villain or not.
