Kingdom of Ash

I did it. Somehow, I did it. I got through this gigantic monster of a book.
It was such an emotional experience reading this, knowing the story has now ended. The story of an assassin named Celaena Sardothien, which started in one place and ended somewhere none of us expected when we read the first Throne of Glass book, I'm sure. It is a really tough book to read, this one. It's war through and through, and it's hard and awful and emotional and sad and horrifying. It is the kind of book where you can't exactly gather your feelings for it until it's over, until you have debated with yourself if the ending was worth all the horror.
This book is grueling, yet powerful and vital. It is the end of an era - a very long end, but it is the right end.
