มงกุฎแห่งรัตติกาล

The plot started really picking up here and had a lot more emotion. While the first book took a bit to get going, this one felt like we were really pushing forward in the plot. The second half of this book had so many big twists and reveals that make me so excited for book 3

Overall it was a very overwhelmingly emotional and a plot-driven rollercoaster ride.

I enjoyed this one more than I did the first book. We learned more about the characters, which answered a lot of questions but also raised many more, especially at the end of the book! I really enjoyed learning more about the magic elements, and what it was Queen Elena wanted of Celaena. I enjoyed the action and seeing the darker side to Celaena, she is easily my favourite character so far. There's some more heartache for Celaena in this book, one of which I'm still not over! The one thing that annoyed me was the miscommunication between the characters. So many things could have been made easier if they all said what they felt/knew in full instead of holding things back. I'm looking forward to seeing what comes next on Celaena's journey and what further havoc she can cause!
