Throne of Glass

One of my good friends recommended this book to me saying she loved it, so I went into this with high expectations. This book was not good at all. The main character is this whiny, vapid teenager who is supposedly this amazing, renowned assassin but throughout the book that was barely apparent. She cared more about her pretty dresses and choosing between the two boys in her life. The characterization is terrible – there was barely any information about Chaol, he was just kind of there throughout the story and all of a sudden he becomes a love interest. This book was a waste of my time, and I do not recommend this to anyone who wants to actually read something good and entertaining.
