#LittensLoveSJM #TOG Book 1 Ch.49-51: Wow, what an intense duel between Cain and Celaena (and Nehemia and Elena vs demons). In the aftermath Nehemia tells Celaena her secrets (she‘s super badass) and it is alluded to again that Celaena has magic in her blood. Dorian stands up a bit to his father and Chaol won‘t be punished for killing Cain, even though Cain was acting out what the king wanted. ⬇️

StayCurious Kaltain got the shaft and will probably be killed or imprisoned. I feel a bit bad considering she was used by Perrington. Here‘s hoping the duke gets his later on. We‘re almost finished the first book - we‘ll read the rest tomorrow! 2h

#LittensLoveSJM #TOG Book 1 Ch.46-48: Wow I‘m so outraged on Celaena‘s behalf! We knew Perrington and Kaltain had arranged to drug her during the duel but to think that they actually pulled it off…so many emotions right now. How will she pull through and how can she prove what they did? Really tense chapters as we near the end.

#LittensLoveSJM #TOG Book 1 Ch.43-45: I‘m glad Celaena told Nehemia about who she is but was surprised she didn‘t rat out Cain. Why keep it to herself? Chaol at least should know, even if she told him in a roundabout way. The King is back - and super secretive. What the heck happened that everyone he was with died?! I hope we find out and it isn‘t just brushed under the rug. More smooches with Dorian - but we don‘t really know how she feels⬇️

StayCurious I‘m annoyed that the tests keep getting glossed over or canceled. You could have some very interesting scenes with the champions. Now we‘re already on to the duel and I know nothing about the other two that made it besides Cain. 2d

5feet.of.fury @StayCurious I‘ve never seen a fantasy book with trials show so little of them, and we knew very little of most of the other contestants. V strange 2d

5feet.of.fury I‘m glad Celaena somewhat confided somewhat in Nehemiah and Nox, but I not telling anyone about Cain… risky 2d

Laughterhp Seriously. What was the point of even pretending there would be tests. Or why have so many characters if you weren‘t going to talk about them? 2d

Roary47 I agree that I would have liked to read more about the trials, and other characters. I‘m also glad that she was able to get Nox out of there. What happened to the poisons guy? Was he eliminated or killed? I‘m hoping the next chapters will help answer some questions. 2d

StayCurious @Roary47 Pelor was eliminated if I recall correctly- not killed. But did he have to return to his prison? Or wherever he came from? Cause that sucks 2d

LiseWorks Do you guys think maybe the king is being used by some magician? 2d

Thank goodness she had explored the tomb earlier. Interesting how when she was thinking of being killed, she thought of Nehemia and Chaol but not Dorian. That tells us something for sure.

#LittensLoveSJM #TOG Book 1 Ch.37-39: Nothing happened at the Yule ball-except dancing and romance and a love 🔺 getting more complicated. Celaena was expecting something to go down - perhaps Nehemia didn‘t strike because she didn‘t want to hurt her friend - Celaena was not supposed to be there. Or Nehemia is innocent 🤷‍♀️ I believe Perrington is up to no good - of course. And something is up with Kaltain. Time for some answers to this mystery!

#LittensLoveSJM #TOG Book 1 Ch.34-36: so we‘re down to 5 Champions and most of them have been gruesomely killed - but I feel as though that has been glossed over. Each death is just mentioned in passing. And while Celaena is worried, I feel as though there should be a bit more being done around the castle. Maybe having a masked ball isn‘t the best idea. ⬇️

StayCurious As Celaena mentions- it would make a good place to unleash the beast. Do we think it is Nehemia behind the killings? She is acting strangely. 5d

StayCurious @LiseWorks @5feet.of.fury @mcctrish @BarkingMadRead @Read4life @Laughterhp @Roary47 @Butterfinger @lilybird 5d

mcctrish Despite reading this before I remember nothing - Nehemia is acting strangely and has been using Celeana AND she knows what wyrdmarks are/mean. I can‘t believe she‘s behind the gruesome disemboweling. I think the weird black rings are so Perrington/Cain are somehow. Or it‘s the King somehow. Today is my last day of school so maybe I will just read to the end 😆 5d

Roary47 Like @mcctrish I‘ve read this and I remember nothing about what happened. Nehemia is definitely hiding something, but until her people were slaughtered did she really have that much of a vengeance? It seems this king is on the bad side of a lot of neighboring communities so it could be anyone. I also am starting to like the prince @LiseWorks I mean he gave her a puppy! 🐶😍 He‘s so awkward around her it‘s so cute. 🥰💛 (edited) 5d

#LittensLoveSJM #TOG Ch.31-33: we are reminded that Nehemiah‘s people are still at war, some still rebelling against Adarlan‘s forces. Is that where the king is? Enforcing his rule?

#LittensLoveSJM #TOG Book 1 Ch.28-30: first - Celaena getting frustrated when she‘s not immediately good at something is funny. Second, she‘s certainly been spending a lot of time with Dorian. I doubt much can come of it - not if his parents have anything to say about it. Does he find her interesting simply because he‘s not supposed to? ⬇️

StayCurious Also our Champions are falling like flies. Pretty soon Cain or Celaena will be all that‘s left. My instincts are that it‘s Perrington but that‘s the easy answer. What if it‘s Pelor? How else is he supposed to win? That‘s my guess. 7d

mcctrish Perrington is a problem! Chaol is onto something watching him and his weirdness also Kaltain is involved somehow with the headaches - 7d

BarkingMadRead Perrington is definitely suspicious, as is Cain 7d

5feet.of.fury Celaena medical examiner didn‘t make the most sense to me. There‘s no blood because the creature sharpened its claws? What? But in any event my prime suspect in the murders is Kaltain 7d

LiseWorks @5feet.of.fury I think the creature sharpened his claws on the floor or wall before he attacked. Therefore, there was no blood where the claw marks were on the floor. 7d

5feet.of.fury @LiseWorks thank you! That makes way more sense 😂 7d

Laughterhp I think everyone is up to no good. I suspect everyone! Kaltain‘s headaches are suspect too lol. And what‘s with Perrington and the ring now? 7d

#LittensLoveSJM #TOG Book 1 Ch.25-27: Hmm, Celaena gets a visit from a long lost queen and receives cryptic warnings and missives and a protection necklace. Better not let anyone know about the secret chamber with the tomb - and stop asking everyone about the Wyrdmarks - you‘ll paint a target on your back. If the King finds out what she‘s up to she‘s cooked. There are 16 Champions left. And still more tests to come. ⬇️

#LittensLoveSJM #TOG Book 1 Ch.22-24: ooh - a secret passage! I love me a secret passage! And now Celaena has an escape route if she needs one. I was miffed though when she saw that most of the champions got to go to the feast and she was excluded. Unfair! What do we think those symbols mean around the clock tower?

#LittensLoveSJM #TOG Book 1 Ch.13-15: hmm a simple archery contest as the first test? I feel like they‘re lulling the competitors into a false sense of security. Or maybe going easy on them simply because one of them was just murdered. Something is going on. It has to do with the King‘s secrecy and with the dead hounds I‘ll bet.

Butterfinger A lot happened here. Possible allies with Nox and the Princess. I just can't think she is a cold-blooded killer. Even with her imagining ways to kill Cain, would she kill him from anger or resentment? I think she shows more restraint because she shows empathy for the peasants, Pelor, and she still feels guilty for leaving her fellow prisoners behind. She is a fun character. 2w

Being in the castle, there will be a lot of court intrigue - we already see a big rift between the prince and the king, and I‘m guessing - since Dorian looks nothing like his father - maybe his parentage has been questioned at some point? ⬇️

#LittensLoveSJM #TOG Book 1:Ch.1-3: So far I like Celaena -the fact that she still has spirit after such a harrowing year in the mine is admirable. The prince is arrogant - as he would be. He‘s used to getting what he wants and he‘s probably accustomed to his family‘s power being unconditional. I‘m not sure where the Captain of the guard stands. Is he completely loyal to his master? It‘s an interesting dynamic and an interesting start to the story

BarkingMadRead I‘m so ready to read about a badass woman, she seems like she will fit the bill! 2w

5feet.of.fury Very excited to learn more about the contest! I like Celeana so far, don‘t know what to think about the boys 2w

Butterfinger I liked Celaena. She has a mantra, "I will not be afraid." That reminds me of Feyre - I will do what needs to be done to survive. She shares Nesta's disdain toward those in power and Bryce's smart mouth. Maas is brilliant in creating her individual characters and different worlds. I can't wait to find out who her great love will be. 2w

Roary47 So excited to read this again. 😍 2w

#LittensLoveSJM #TOG - a reminder that we are starting our foray into SJM‘s other series, Throne of Glass, starting on Friday. All are welcome to join us - just let me know if you want to be tagged in my daily posts. I‘ve heard that although it takes a few books to really hit its stride, some people actually prefer #TOG to #ACOTAR - looking forward to finding out with you all!

This was a fantastic read! Richly drawn characters, a complex, edge-of-your-seat plot, and a world full of mystery and hidden magic. Celaena is more textured in this book, and I liked her more, I think. There are some real stand out side characters — Nehemiah, please — and an enjoyably dark and gritty challenge to solve. Maybe a touch slow-paced at times, and I‘m definitely glad I read the prequel first, but overall definitely a win.

annahenke I recently reread this one. Still loved it so much all these years later, honestly one of my all time fave series! 3w

BookBr @annahenke It‘s my first read through and can definitely see the series becoming a favourite! 2w

#LittensLoveSJM @LitsyEvents I wanted to post this early since I‘ve seen some interest. After we finish the final instalment of #ACOTAR, I will be hosting the #TOG series by SJM. I‘d like to say that I‘ve heard great things about the series but most say it takes a couple books to really get into the world. She started writing the series as a teen so keep that in mind. Also, there are different views on how to read the series: ⬇️

StayCurious there‘s a purist way that says read in order of publication, but if you want the most emotional impact, there‘s a romantic way of reading. I‘ve chosen to go for the emotional order. I will read the prequel novellas only after the first 3 books in the series. I will read Tower of Dawn before Empire of Storms (these books happen concurrently). I‘d love for you to join me starting June 13th! 2mo

Here we go again… another Sarah J. Maas series to get hooked on.

CrowCAH I‘ll soon be reading this one with my older sister! We‘re starting the major romantasy hype books. Already we‘ve read ACOTAR and Fourth Wing. 3mo

Andarna @CrowCAH nice! I read both of those series‘ and started the Crescent City series as well. I do t so much love too much romance but do enjoy all other aspects of these books. 3mo

CrowCAH @Andarna from what I‘ve read so far, it seems more on the world building and adventure, than romance. But I‘m certainly glad the romance is added. 3mo

slategreyskies @CrowCAH I‘m curious as to which romantasy books made your TBR list. I‘m reading the second book in Fourth Wing now. Throne of Glass is on my list as well. 3mo

CrowCAH @slategreyskies I‘m listening to Iron Flame now too! ACOTAR, I listened to book one. I added A Fate Inked in Blood. Currently reading The Ever King 🏴‍☠️. 3mo

so-so

Throne of Glass by Sarah J. Mass. 7,3/10 rating. This was not what I expected. While it was good, it was not enough for me to get invested in it. Will not continue the saga.

Finally, my first SJM! I liked it but I didn‘t love it as much as everyone seems to. In the first 300 pages, despite mysterious killings in the castle and death defying tests for Celaena to become the king‘s champion, there seems to be no narrative urgency. Not to mention the idiosyncrasies of mentioning our heroine causing her door hinges to squeak as protection but then being surprised by everyone stopping in unannounced for pages afterward. ⬇️

LeafingThroughLife That said, it did pick up at the end, and I was invested in Celaena‘s story and the romance, so I‘ll probably continue with the series. I think it has room to grow. I‘ll probably get to Heir of Fire - the actual title from my #auldlangspine list - later this year. Thanks to @thebacklistbook and @monalyisha for helping me start my reading year out right! 5mo

monalyisha I totally get feeling like the only person who‘s not on the SJM train! I still haven‘t read any of her books, either. Lonelier and lonelier out here. 😅 Glad this worked for you enough to consider pursuing the next book in the series. Thanks for participating! 🥳 5mo

thebacklistbook I think it matters what mindset one has while reading these. I first read them while in college and it was torture to wait for the next one to come out. Coming back to them now, I felt less invested but comfortable reading it. It picks up in future books. @LeafingThroughLife 5mo

LeafingThroughLife @monalyisha SJM will get you eventually! You can‘t hide forever! 😆 5mo

LeafingThroughLife @thebacklistbook I think I‘ll like it more now that I feel like I know what to expect. Thanks for getting me started on the series. I enjoyed reading from your list! 😀 5mo

This might be ambitious but the end of the year TBR is locked in. I have a plan!

Desolation Canyon and The Widow (already about 1/2 done) are my 15 hours Spotify listens. Throne of Glass, I expect to finish this weekend and then I can start Wreck the Halls. Sasaki and Miyano is something I can definitely breeze through!

Wish me luck!!

I enjoyed this one. It was definitely more political intrigue than romantasy. I am hopeful the next book has a bit more of the love story - however after reading ACOTAR I don‘t know which way the “romance” will go. I‘m on pins & needles because of that. 😂 4.5 💫

My friend finally got me to join the SJM hype train. It took awhile for me to get hooked, but once it got me, I wasn‘t leaving. Lots of YA tropes with this one, but I find it charming overall and there were several moments I was on edge because of everything that was happening.
