** spoiler alert ** 
 So much stuff happened at the end I can't even. Generally it was quite slow but then we get to the last 100 pages and s*** goes down. I'm now super excited for the next book I can't believe it. It was so brutal. I love celaena and rowan being carraman, I can't wait to see her back in adarlan and all the stuff with Dorian and aedion aaaaaaaaah!!!! Although, I do kind of wonder about the purpose of the entire book, because it just felt like a set up for the next one, like a bridge where no incredible plot things happen, y'know. Like I get that she had to learn magic and the stuff with the revels was happening, but she went to wendlyn for info and didn't get any, so... 
 I'm still mourning the loss of Chaolaena and I will be forever, but I am determined not to let it get in the way of my enjoyment of the series. (But it's hard, they're so perfect). Still amazing though, if a little slow. 
 PS That slave massacre thing got to me, like a lot.
