Tower of Dawn

I LOVE THIS SERIES SO MUCH!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Okay, so first I didn't start off super hyped up about this book because of the way Empire of Storms ended. I mean, come on! Who goes from all that to Chaol in Antica?! I'm sorry Chaol but Aelin is my absolute favorite! I'm a sucker for witty, sarcastic women who get me laughing so hard I can't breathe.

Anyway, once I managed to finally find a way to actually read the book (my e-reader broke :'() and told myself I had to get through it before Kingdom of Ash I found out that Tower of Dawn really isn't that bad (like that's a surprise...). The whole journey Chaol went through is something that I can relate to so well in my own way since I'm going through a why-am-I-such-a-failure phase in my life as well. I kinda wish I had a Yrene Towers to kindly and sternly push me through it because I can make it through if I wasn't so stubborn :D. His whole restoration at the end really touched me and helped me see my situation in a different light (kinda). This whole series really has been a comfort for me and has helped me see a bit of the person I want to be.

About one-third of the way there (I think, who pays attention to where they are in a book? I forget chapter numbers most of the time), I got hooked and couldn't put it down, again! I loved the little “fights” that Chaol and Yrene had and enjoyed the whole adventure Nesryn, Sartuk, Borte, and the ruk riders had (if dragons, phoenixes, or ruks were real...).

I can't wait to start Kingdom of Ash!

And to Sarah J. Maas: you really shouldn't spoil me so, you are wayyyyy too good at it.
