I JUST CANTTTTTTT 
 ughhhhhh Sarah J Maas just finds a million ways to break my heart. 
 (view spoiler)[ 
 Okay so I'm not going to lie I didn't really like the romance between Nesryn and Sartaq at the beginning. I was so suspicious of him and I didn't like how freely Nesryn told him stuff especially because she hasn't been with the crew for that long. But in the end I came to love them sooooo much but only in the very end when I knew he wouldn't betray them. 
 But omg I loved the whole new dynamic of this new country and it's rules and court. I was so fresh to get back to the formal setting of a court. I loved almost everything about this book. 
 Chaol definitely redeemed himself and it felt like Heir of Fire all over again when he was making his confessions. I love the fact that Chaol is still in a wheel chair and has come to terms with it. 
 This book made me cry twice and it was all mainly because of the crew. 
 things that shook me: 
 - BUT OMG LYSANDRA AND HER UNCLE 
 - AND OMGGGGG CHAOL AND YRENE HAS SOOOO MANY OPPORTUNITIES TO MENTION THEIR MUTUAL FRIEND BUT OF COURSE IT HAD TO BE AT THE VERY ENDDDDDDD. 
 - VALG QUEEN??????? okay that part was so far-fetched, the whole thing seemed really out of place and didn't flow as nicely as Sarahs other plot twist but okay Sarah J Maas why not 
 I don't understand how Sarah J Maas makes everything come in full circle. It is just amazing. I don't know if I'm missing any characters but all of the characters we meet in The Assassins Blade are met again and their characters storys come full circle.

 conclusion; I LOVE SARAH J MAAS
