I don't really have words for how much this one affected me. 

It was well written and the inner turmoil for Celaena was deeper than I was imagining. As the same goes for other characters. 

This part of the series really helped build the characters into more dimensions. And it helped deepen the story to more than just "I will get revenge." It was simply amazing and I don't want to wait to read Queen of Shadows, but I have to because of school.
