Throne of Glass

3.5 ⭐️
This book was a very nice surprise.
I won't lie, I started reading it full of prejudice. Which was partially justified - the main female character was rather annoying at the beginning and I found the notion of her being the most notorious assassin utterly hilarious.
And while by the end I still didn't believe her to be the most notorious anything, she sort of grew on me.
Though the particular love situation utilised in this book (not to spoil it), in its nature, is something I detest, it was executed way better than in most young adult books I've read. The author knows how to write a slow burn and believable tension.
What I liked the most though, was the fantasy. The author has created a rich world and infused it with mystery. I am very curious to know more about it.
There were a few conveniences and a spot of cringe here and there. But overall, a very nice reading experience.
