Welcome to Litsy!

I really enjoy Sarah J Mass‘ works, but must have read them in too rapid succession, because first it got on my wick when Rhys ‘crooned‘ so much, and now Aelin keeps ‘drawling‘!

⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️/5

Amazing. Slow start but the ending killed me.

1. Rather than describe, I thought I would show 📚☺️
2. I love to make zero plans for a whole weekend and just read 🤓
3. A cup of coffee or tea to sip as I read ☕️

I am a sucker for this series,this was a good one!🔥

Bk10 of February is done! The 5th in the TOG series, it sets up the final showdown in Kingdom Of Ash plus answers a lot of questions & ties up loose ends. The ending still got me, even being a reread😢 Onto Tower Of Dawn(even though it‘s not an Aelin book!) #BookspinBingo #PennyPerPage #SeriesRead2022 #ChunksterChallenge #FinishingTheSeries #Booked2022 #KickTheSlump #readathon

It felt a bit like most of the book was more getting people into places than advancing stories, but that meant spending time w/new characters that I enjoyed (like Elide & Lorcan) and revisiting returning characters like Aedion & Lysandra (side note: Aedion delivered my fave line in this book). Even Rowan was less annoying this time. The stakes didn't seem stressful, but I didn't mind, and the ending was excellent. I'm looking forward to the next.

The last two months have been absolute hell for me, my anxiety got out of control, my reading focus went to shit, and sleeping on the sofa was better for me then sleeping in bed.
But now, I'm starting to feel better, coming back into reading by #rereading another of my favourite series. I'm finally glad that I'm starting to be able to chill out and enjoy some peace. I cant wait to start #empireofthevampire once I complete my #throneofglass reread

⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️
So much comes to a head in this one, and honestly I got half way through and couldn‘t remember another thing that happened, so it was a wild ride til the end. Ending in perhaps one of the worst cliffhangers, I‘m jumping into book 6!

And with this book, SJM loses me a lot. Aelin is conniving, and after 5 books her lack of communication is so frustrating. Especially when combined with SJM‘s habit of springing “known” info on the readers, it was a slog. Also, the repetition is a little annoying. “Rutting” isn‘t a great word, and absolutely does not replace the f-word well. Just say f*ck with your whole chest, please.

God, I love Aelin's court/assorted friends all coming together for some epic showdowns. And the ending remains RUDE. #yafantasy

Too much for me, it‘s totally amazing.

Book #26: I love when distant characters‘ stories finally merge!! The big reveal felt like something we should‘ve known all along, very much Harry Potter vibes in that way. The ending is gut wrenching, but I think I‘m most mad that I have to read a book that takes place in parallel with characters I don‘t care as much about before I can get to the final book in the series. This one finally delivered on some spice as well.

Let me just say... emotional roller coaster!!! This book was soooo good. It‘s definitely my favorite so far, and I had so many tabs. The beginning was a little slow but there was so many twists and turns, BUT it leaves you with a cliffhanger 😭 For sure recommend tho!

4 stars

I am speechless after finishing this book.. and I am still crying from that ending..I loved the journey while reading this book but that ending broke me 😭
5⭐️‘s, but idk how I am going to be able to finish Tower of Dawn now..

In the middle of the fifth book of the "Throne of Glass" -Series. I do understand the fuss, that's surrounding it, now. Absolutely love that the women are not only empowered but also smart!

I adore Empire of Storms like it‘s such an easy read and then there‘s Tower of Dawn which is a wreck sometimes to say the least. It‘s getting better tho - at times

Canon post that Rowan

I am doing this series on my tumblr but why not here - I‘m gonna post my reactions to my tandem read of Empire of Storms and Tower of Dawn ( with the spoiler tag of course)

I put this on hold 2 days ago & it had a 3 week wait. Look what came in today! I‘m trying to finish about 6 other books before this reread. Once I start it (and get to that ending 🥲) I will have to keep going through books 6 & 7. Going to try end wait until next weekend to start.. but we‘ll see.

Any Maas fans out there? Which do you prefer: #ACOTAR... or Throne of Glass? #tog

⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️

Queen Of Shadows is gonna be hard to beat, but I'm looking forward to seeing what SJM is gonna do next.

Another good book to a great series! I did find this book dragged on a bit but I kept going with it. Some of storyline was confusing but I got it once the mirror was involved. The ending of this book tho, holy shit I was STRESSED, it was amazing!!! It was so hard to read but also to put down!

I‘ve read the blurb to the next book and I‘m a bit annoyed about its theme after the ending to EoS but I‘m hoping it will pick up once I start reading it

Such a great series

Onto the next.

Definitely some plot twists in this book that I didn‘t expect! I liked getting to watch some of the characters that were introduced in previous books come back and then be developed more.

I‘m currently reading the last book and I think it‘s safe to say THIS particular installment was one of the most memorable... if not THE most memorable of the entire series!! The absolutely EPIc battles scenes!!! And a few characters really came into their own and emerged as fierce fighters. It‘s like the whole series was leading up to the awesomeness that was THIS book. I‘d give it more than 5 stars if I could! ♥️ ⭐️ ⭐️ ⭐️ ⭐️ ⭐️/5

This book took my breath away. The fights, the characters, everything was just breathtaking. Except for the "R-rated" scenes. They were cringing as hell. Sarah literally used the word "velvet-wrapped steel". But aside from that, the plot has improved considerably, and the ending is mind-blowing. Can't wait to read the last one!

4.8/5

I‘ve wanted to re-read Kingdom of Ash as soon as I finished it the first time but it was such an intense book that I‘ve been putting it off. To push myself into it I chucked EOS on my #bookspin list knowing once I started I wouldn‘t be able to stop. It worked well, I enjoyed the re-read so much, both of the official bookspin EOS and end goal of KOA. I could rant for days about individual scenes but to be simple I‘ll just say hard pick 😍
