Ellie you will always be special to me. Can't believe she just straight up froze that warmage's balls, good for her.
Please don't kill donut miss chaos goddess. Chopping off Carl's feet might be a little funny for about five seconds though, before the AI's world ending crash out destroys all known life in the universe.
I'm pretty sure that Minus guy is trying to kill Carl and Donut. I mean, it's been pretty heavily implied. Wonder what new and horrible execution method the AI will cook up for him. I mean, he already did the 'pulling out harbinger's intestines through his hair follicles' thing. What's next? Pulling out his eyeballs through his anus?
MATT DINNIMAN GAVE US A KARAOKE BAR FIGHT IN BOOK 8 GOD BLESS. Did not know that what I was missing in my life was Carl and Donut doing a duet while duking it out with a drunk unicorn. Incredible. 10/10 no notes.
I also am deeply concerned about the AI in general. And also Carl keeps using 'he' for the AI, like donut mentioned. You notably did not reply to that one, Carl.
Anyways, I'm halfway through chapter 58 as of now. I am both excited and frightened to see where this book is going.
Okay. I finished this last night and what the hell did I get myself into?! I haven’t even started book one and I’ve already been emotionally destroyed at least twice!!
There are certain things that I obviously knew about ToG because of tumblr but I currently have the tags blocked to avoid additional spoilers.
Anyway... reactions & thoughts are down below. 👇🏻👇🏻👇🏻

These are just notes (and gifs) I logged on my phone while I was reading.
The Assassin and the Pirate Lord
Okay, bold open, way to set the scene & introduce the characters.
I immediately love Celaena.
I wonder if she’s going to love Sam or be betrayed by him. 🤔
I don’t get good vibes about this Arobynn guy...
Aw, are they gonna free the slaves together?
Katie, you can’t fall in love with Sam. He isn’t ENDGAME™ & you can’t get attached!!
Calaena with Rolfe...
Aww they saved the slaves together!
And they definitely love each other...
God damnit, Katie! YOU love Sam...
This is going to hurt me later 🤦🏼♀️
But what’s gonna happen now?
The Assassin and the Healer
Who are these people and where are we?
I know that's Celaena but what happened after they freed the slaves? And where is Sam?
Yeah... I don’t like Arobynn...
But I do like Yrene.
I want to know more about magic disappearing!
Seems like Celaena got that fight she was looking for.
Celaena is just a big softie, isn't she?
The Assassin and the Desert
The Silent Assassin introduction be like
Ansel hasn’t necessarily said or done anything to make her seem untrustworthy but maybe I just don’t trust anyone right now.
Okay I do not fucking like Arobynn!!!
Who is this Ilias? Sarah, why are you throwing in more love interests that I know aren’t ENDGAME™ for me to emotionally avoid?!?!
Six mile run through the desert? More like
She’s thinking about Sam before bed... she’s got it bad!
Field trip!
I want to know more about the witches!!
Celaena is a shopaholic and I love it!
Yeah, Ansel is definitely up to something.
And now she’s stealing these horses? Ansel over here like
Okay now I need more information on Terrasen. TELL ME ALL OF YOUR SECRETS!!
Ansel lied? SHOCKER! What ELSE is she hiding though??
See the snake. Be the snake.
No kisses for you, Ilias! She’s saving those for the other boy I wasn’t supposed to get attached to but did anyway.
You poisoned her, Ansel?! That letter is the biggest piece of bullshit I’ve ever read. SEE THROUGH THE LIES, CELAENA!!
Yup, Ansel was scheming schemes... saw that one coming.
Aaaaand she let her go.
Aww the Master is a big softie too!!
The Assassin and the Underworld
Alright now payoff your debts and be free!!!
Arobynn’s such an asshole. Like is he trying to be her dad or her daddy?
Okay one more job AND THEN BE FREE!!
SAM 😍
Wait, who is Lysandra?
Cool suit with hidden weapons. Are there pockets for snacks??
This is making me love Sam more and I can’t do it... I know he’s not ENDGAME™ so that means he’s gonna die or betray her and I can’t do it...
He got her the sheet music 🥺
Doneval was just like “Hmm evil deeds at 7:30, why don’t we meet at 8:30?”
Drowning in sewer water is not the way to go... Obviously I know she’s gonna be okay - there are 7 more books after this. But scary and gross.
“Because I love you!” YEAH DUMMY HE LOVES YOU!
Kissing!!!
Why does Doneval have documents with locations of safe houses??
Doneval loved his country? Oh no... Celaena, you naive fool!
Of course, Arobynn set you up and lied to you. 🙄
He bid for & won Lysandra’s bidding??
He did want to be a daddy
Aww but now she and Sam are free and living together.
The Assassin and the Empire
A prison wagon???
They’re making plans to move away together and I know it’s not going to happen and I know I’m not going to be okay by the end of this.
Arobynn is a big, sneaky scumbag.
I don’t have a good feeling about this client Sam found...
More kissing and Sam is such a gentlemen about it. Why do you keep making me love him more and more and I know something is going to happen???
Have I mentioned how much I dislike Arobynn?
Once again, I need to know Celaena’s secrets!!
This is making me anxious. I don’t have a good feeling about this job or this plan...
Okay, please don’t do this to me, Sarah! I already know what’s coming but please don’t...
You did...
I fucking KNEW Sam wasn’t ENDGAME™ and so I TRIED not to get attached but WHAT THE FUCK?!?!
I know your heartbroken and angry but THINK, Celaena.
Arobynn is setting you up!!!
Told you so... Arobynn & Farran are working together.
It’s kind of funny and awesome that all of these grown, hulking men are terrified of Celaena.
Now the prison wagon makes sense
Okay so I know this was just a set up for the rest of the series but why must Sarah play with my emotions like this?!
