repost for @StayCurious

Originally we were going to read Tower of Dawn first b/c a few sources online mentioned it would be a more emotional way to go into the final book of the series. I‘ve changed my mind and decided we will read in publication order -which means Empire of Storms first. We will start in December, reading 9 chapters a week, first check in December 8. Please let me know if you‘d like to continue on this #ToG journey with us.

#LittensLoveSJM #ToG #EoS Ch.1-9: And we‘re right back into the story - I love it. By this book, SJM knows who her audience is, she knows we‘ve been on this journey with her so far, we don‘t need boring long expositions- we‘re ready to get back in with our characters. It starts off interesting and stays that way - so far. ⬇️

StayCurious Some of my takeaways- Manon is starting to really come into her own. It was interesting to see Elide described as “demon possessed”. Vernon is a weasel. Funny that Erowan took on a new, handsome, athletic body. Although- wouldn‘t you? I love how loyal the members of Aelin‘s court are. Were we really thinking she‘d be welcomed back onto her throne with open arms? Yes, I kinda was. I hate old power grubbing men ⬇️ 24h

StayCurious Telling her to make herself useful by getting married🙄the nerve! I‘m all about Rowan and Aelin now (something I never thought I‘d say given how much of a jerk he started out as)…them being separated is never a good thing…I‘ve rambled on long enough and barely touched the surface - a lots going on. What were some of your key moments? 24h

BarkingMadRead I don‘t like that Rowan left, it worries me. I was so excited that Manon is becoming so sure of herself. I was so shocked that Aelin wasn‘t welcomed back, with everyone we‘ve met already calling her Queen. I‘m hoping Elide is ok, this demon thing worries me! 23h

LiseWorks Oh my goodness, there was a lot going on. Team Manon and Dorian, here they come. 15h

mcctrish Since I couldn‘t get my copy from the library like I wanted, I bought one off of FB marketplace& then started decorating for Christmas & forgot all about reading 🤦🏻‍♀️ Manon for sure has a plan with her 13 that we will be informed of when it‘s convenient, last time Rowan left shit hit the fan so I‘m hoping him rescuing Dorian isn‘t a repeat performance! I want Elide to be safe. Old power hungry men are becoming a hard pass & same old conflict 1h

#LittensLoveSJM #ToG Queen of Shadows Ch.81-end /review - wow a lot happened in this book, and in these last few chapters! Aelin and her court, have returned to Terrasen. They have their work cut out for them fighting for what is hers. The king of Adarlan is dead - or so they believe. I want to see a body before I make up my mind. Dorian is now King and has been left in Adarlan. I worry about how he‘ll get on by himself. ⬇️

StayCurious Chaol and Nesryn are off on their own adventure to heal Chaol‘s legs. I like him a bit better now but do we think he really needs his own book? Meh. I want - as always - more witches. How will Manon go forward? Will she disobey her grandmother? Try to over turn her? I‘m most interested in her story. 1w

BarkingMadRead I‘m obsessed with Manon, I hope we get plenty of her in future! 1w

StayCurious Overall I enjoyed this book most so far out of the series. It solved some things but left so many things up in the air that I‘m looking forward to the next instalment. 1w

5feet.of.fury This was my favorite one so far. The most cohesive, a good ending to this book and transition to the next. 1w

Littlewolf1 @5feet.of.fury I completely agree. When Rowan shows up and she runs into his arms… It was perfect. The fact that Dorian is able to get free and then Manon shows up is even better. 1w

mcctrish More witches!!!!! I hope Elide connects with the gang on their hike to Terrasen! I didn‘t think the King was dead ? Just not possessed ! Ooops read too fast 1w

StayCurious @mcctrish they believe the King is dead - that he died when the glass castle shattered- but I don‘t know if he is. There wasn‘t enough closure there. 1w

mcctrish Oh he‘s off hiding somewhere - where is baby brother ? I‘ve forgotten his name and I borrowed all the books from the library 1w

StayCurious @mcctrish I think he is hiding out with Dorian‘s mother in the mountains or something. She took him away when things started getting dodgy in the capital 1w

LiseWorks I still think Manon ❤️ Dorian, And I'm a little worried about him all alone 1w

Butterfinger I agree with everyone else. My favorite so far. I love the teasing between Aedion and Lysandra. 7d

The Assassin's Blade | Sarah J. Maas

Sometimes I'll read a book on Bookey just because I'm short on time and it's convenient. I've been reading The Assassin's blade and I am kinda shocked I'm enjoying it because I'm not the biggest fan of Sarah J's writing but even in short form the story is engaging and I'm wondering where she went wrong on ACOTAR

This one was a lot of fun, tons of action, a little romance and the power of friendship. Excited for what‘s next especially for the witches. #LittensLoveSJM @StayCurious

StayCurious Yes I love the witches plot line 1w
