I think the narrators thoughts on Celaena's arrogance is very interesting - I don't know yet whether it's a trait she'll maintain until the final book, or the starting point of a journey into humility. I hope it's the latter.

Part III is complete, and surely the best of the book. Did not see that twist coming, and I reckon the Master is the best character this series will ever bring to me. I want to see more of Ansel and Ilias.

Part III shows high promise, with fascinating settings and more intriguing characters. The Master seems awesome, and I'm a huge fan of the diverse and tightly-bound community. And now, the promise of a side plot on the Stygian spiders: fantastic.

Finished Part II, and definitely preferred it to Part I. Much shorter, but still contextualising ToG. Also Yrene was INSTANTLY a fascinating character for the extent that religion plays in her identity. Definitely some of the best quotes in this Part too.

Finished Part I. Enjoyed it, and looking forward to exploring more parts of Erilea. Best takeaways: Sam and Celaena's relationship already offers clues for its development; we'll have to see Rolfe again, and learn why he ended up in a business he seemingly isn't FULLY onboard with; why is Aborynn sending his best assassins to deal with a business arrangement? Hm.
