Awesome. These five novellas give you all the stories that occurred before Throne of Glass that you hear about throughout the book. It was great to have a little more explained about Celaena's past and what lead up to her being captured and sent to Endovier in the first place. I would still love to read a story about how Arobynn found Celaena as a child and then began to train her to become the worlds most famous assassin.Here while Celaena is a little younger her arrogance is startling and almost her "fatal flaw" as most characters need. I found myself wanting to slap her every now and then due to her unwavering arrogance in the face of every situation. Interesting how Sarah J Maas could make you really annoyed at a character you love but without turning on them completely, it's more realistic that way as everyone has annoying traits.A must for anyone who love the Throne of Glass series, especially while waiting for the third book to come out.
What a beautiful insight into the relationship between two such amazing friends. Just a girls day out in the city. I loved the true friendship that is depicted in this short little story that made it miss my best friend.
A little fun exchange between two of the main characters when their relationship was still forming. A love the banter back and forth between Celaena and Choal.
I loved this book. The story had just enough intrigue, action, and even romance. Celaena the main character is great. She is strong willed, opinionated and cunning. However she is only 17 and she acts just like a 17 year old, which is not a problem except that she is supposed to be the worlds most feared assassin and apart from the fighting, she is a gushing young kid. Putting that aside though, she was a fun character that I enjoyed following.
I have discovered that I definitely have a "type" of book that I love reading. They don't have to be in the same genre but there are similar themes that run through them all. This book seemed to be all of them combined. All the way through the book I had déjà vu moments and memories of previous books flooded back.
Even though reading this book remind me of all the others before it, I still loved every part of it.
