Sarah J Maas does it again with my mouth open and couldn‘t put this book down. The story telling and continue to see how it all plays out just 🤯

#LittensLoveSJM #ToG book 4 We‘re back with the main story and it‘s a long one with 89 chapters, over 600 pages. I decided in order to take some of the pressure off the #buddyread, I would “assign” 10 chapters a week and we would check in once a week, on Mondays. This will take us to end of November but of course you can read at your own pace, as always. Please let me know if you want to join in - all are welcome!

#LittensLoveSJM #ToG #QueenofShadows Ch.1-10: wow what a great first few chapters - I‘m hooked! I like seeing Aelin try to cope with all the recurring characters of her past (Arobynne, Chaol, Lysandra - and memories of Sam - and of course Aedion). Coming back to Rifthold is a lot for her. I feel terrible for Dorian. Will he be able to break free of his father and the Valg? And I still dislike Chaol. A lot. ⬇️

StayCurious He‘s such a dink - and so prejudiced towards Aelin. He doesn‘t like her killing people. He doesn‘t like her magic. He‘s ashamed that he loved her. He thinks she‘s unpredictable. Dude. You need to go. Granted, some of what he knew of her lines up with these thoughts. But I‘m still on her team. ⬇️ (edited) 5d
StayCurious Then we got a glimpse of our witches. I really hope the 13 take a stand for themselves and realize that Adarlan is into some shady shit. They keep noticing a smell and that things aren‘t right. Do something before you get sucked in and mowed over! (edited) 5d

BarkingMadRead I really really am not a fan of Chaol anymore. A friend warned me when I said I was Team Chaol and she was so so right! Ugh 5d
LiseWorks I am so upset about Dorian. The witches surprised me. Are they working for the King? 5d
Read4life I was trying to hold out hope for Chaol but I just can‘t with him anymore. 🤦🏼‍♀️ 5d
StayCurious @LiseWorks yes the witches have exchanged working with the king to get the wyverns so they can take back their homeland 5d
Laughterhp Just got my book from my library yesterday! Can‘t wait to start 5d
mcctrish Finally we have witches again but I need them to stop complaining about the smell and figure it the fuck out! Chaol will come around, right now he thinks he‘s beneath royalty that kicks ass and not in a sexy way 😜 hopefully a healer means Aedion can help with his escape somehow and not just be a deadweight. Maybe Aelin can help pay off Lysandra‘s debts and they can take Arobynn out together #ihaveplansforthisstory 3d
5feet.of.fury I‘m late lol I‘m not mad at Chaol, the whole convo was really “pot, meet the kettle” blaming eachother for things. Aelin can only see things her impulsive view point, she even realized she could have warned Chaol, didn‘t realize what Lysandra was going thru (even knowing Sam was sympathetic to courtesans… she didn‘t think WHY) 2d
Butterfinger We thought it was Kaltain and what's his face, but having it confirmed is so satisfying. I don't know what to think. I liked Chaol until he said abomination. I think they are all manipulative. Except for Dorian. HELP DORIAN!!!! And Abraxos. He likes to gaze at stars. 🤩🤩 2d

3✨ Some say this should be the first book, some after the third book. Wherever it is placed it hurts. It‘s shows us the depth of our main characters hurt.

#LittensLoveSJM @StayCurious, thanks for hosting this #BuddyRead. Some of these novellas were hard because we knew the end, but we got a clearer picture of the characters. #Read2025 @DieAReader #TurnThePage @Bookwormjillk

#LittensLoveSJM #ToG Novella 5: the assassin and the empire: Well, we did it. We read it and got through it. We knew the ending and we were…sort of…prepared. And honestly, I‘m glad I read these novellas after getting to know Celaena a bit. A lot of people find her unlikeable. I think that yea, she can be difficult at times, but man-she could win an Olympic gold medal in trauma. This girl has been through it. ⬇️

StayCurious It will be interesting to read the next book where she is embracing herself as Aelin and ready to fight for her kingdom and her people. I liked Sam though. I wonder if I will start to feel that way about Rowan. Maybe I shouldn‘t focus so much on romance and focus more on what Celaena needs to do (😆 me laughing knowing that I will always focus on the romance) 2w
BarkingMadRead Even knowing it was going to happen, it was so devastating! Looking forward to the next adventure! 2w

StayCurious @BarkingMadRead yes it will take me time to recover 🥺 2w
5feet.of.fury I liked it as Celaena‘s origin story, but the relationship with Sam didn‘t feel fleshed out enough & arobynn‘s deception was so obvious… I‘m looking forward to getting back to wyrdkeys & wyverns & magic & Manon 2w
mcctrish @5feet.of.fury I have to say I was surprised her relationship with sam wasn‘t more considering she went to bed with Chaol quickly -ish or did I miss her first time?! Also I need more witches 2w
Roary47 @mcctrish I think Chaol was her first time. I seem to remember (and I could be wrong) that she wasn‘t going to wait because the future was so uncertain. In reference to Sam and her getting close and waiting with us knowing it was too late for a future together. 2w
LiseWorks I hate Arobynn so much after this book. I loved Sam, even though I knew the ending for him, knowing that it was partly his fault for going after these two guys. If we had read this book first, it would have been a shock not knowing about what happened to Sam. 2w
5feet.of.fury @Roary47 I think you are correct @mcctrish the physical connection, but also the rest of it, she doesn‘t open up to him about her secret, she still thinks of them being enemies just months ago when “he loved her for years”, they just seem never on the same page.. even in the context of traumatized teens I‘m like “what do you like about eachother??” 2w
mcctrish @5feet.of.fury yes! After this story their relationship feels less explained because of everything it wasn‘t and @LiseWorks Celaena and Arobynn seem more toxic 2w
Littlewolf1 Hey all, sorry I didn‘t pick this one up with you. I had planned to, but I had read it at the beginning of the year when I wanted to do this reread originally. I‘m on board with the next book though, when do we start? 2w
Butterfinger Why won't she even consider Aerobynn as the traitor? As many times as he manipulated, beaten, and betrayed her in this book. I don't get it. Is he a twisted hero (for giving her a purpose, a life) after escaping Terasen, a deranged father figure (who took her to concerts), or just a classic #StockholmSyndrome case? 2w
StayCurious @Littlewolf1 I will post about the timing shortly 2w
