Elphie
By Gregory Maguire

Poor Britney. I cannot believe no one helped her that entire time. Even crazy people have rights. Even addicts have rights. Its such a crazy story. Her family failed her. Bigly.

I knew very little about Julia Fox other than I saw her name everywhere when she was out with Kanye West. What a crazy life she has led. This memoir was very well written, was easy to follow, was organized well, and most of all was incredibly entertaining. I have a lot of respect for Julia after reading this and I regret any of the preconceptions that I had about her prior.

What a wild ride. I haven't felt this way about a series since Harry Potter, and I read ALOT, so that's saying something. I thought the ending tied everything up very well and felt finished. If you're looking for a strong a female character with burn it all to the ground energy, then look no further.

Aelin has become one of my favorite characters of all time. She is bold and fierce and kind and loyal and hilarious. She is everything that we all aspire to be, in all aspects of her life.

Don't sleep on Throne of Glass. It is the superior SJM series in every way.

Were there plot holes? Yes. Were parts of it a little too close to ACOTAR? Yes. Was the MMC’s name really stupid? Yes.

But it was also one of the greatest things I’ve read all year. It’s everything ACOTAR tried to be but wasn’t. Spicy, angsty, daaaaaark and brooding. Fast paced and twisty. I loved every second of it. Bravo.
