“This was all about Celaena and Sam. Lysandra also showed up in this one, and it really makes me regret I didn't read these novellas before the main books”
“Help, this was so good. I cannot believe that I just read this and found it to be so beautiful. Going from the first part all the way to this, Maas stepped up with her writing.”
