Spoilers: Queen of Shadows

Well, I wasn't expecting a meeting between Aelin and Arobryn so early in the book. Fuck, that means this book will be nothing but intensity.
Girl, he's right there! Go to CHAOL !
No! Not Wesley. I wanted him to still be alive.
Damn, Arobryn is good. He has style.
THE LINE! I want this. ”...no matter what shattered her, the Fae warrior would be there to help put the pieces back together.”
Damn. Aelin and Choal are verbally tearing each other apart. This is devastating.
Choal, you are an idiot. You hire an assassin to become Champion. Then, fall in love with said Champion. Then get mad when YOU remember that the Champion was and is indeed an assassin. WTF bro.
Yeah, Dorian knew what was up, “You don't get to pick and choose which parts of her to love.”
Dammit! I wanted to know what was in Wesley's letter. I don't like being robbed of that. I like Wesley.
I like that Aelin and Lysandra seem to be friends, everyone needs her girl. I just hope this doesn't bite Aelin in the ass later.
Well shit. Florine's speech made me tear up.
Yea boi, let's go!!!
Ah, fuck. Not Dorian at the very end.
Wait. Dark wind. That means something… Ah, Nehemiah. Protection.
Ahhhh! I mean, I'm not mad they saved Dorian, but. Ahhh
OMG, I love these cousins together again! 
I fucking hate you, Arobryn. Using Sam's grave as a bargaining chip, you douche.
Aedion Knows of Rowan!!!
Wait, I'm confused on the blood oath. Is Aedion supposed to be King to Aelin's queen? That's weird. Or if Aelin is queen then Aedion get to blood oath?
I'm sure This will come up again.
Oh…..okay. Aedion is supposed to be the one to blood oath to Aelin. NOT Rowan. So much more sense. Oops
Fuck yeah! Rowan is back!
Come on. I don't remember what happened in Heir of Fire, I WAS DESTROYED BY ASSASSIN'S BLADE after that.
Yep, okay. Thank you for the recap of who Gavriel is.
Aelin, you're being a bitch. Aedion deserves your respect and compassion regarding the oath. You're not my favorite person right now.
See, even Rowan gets it.
Glad it's settled, double oath. Dramatic 
I like Manon, but for some reason, I'm not excited about her chapters. Maybe I just need her in the mix more.
Okay, it's starting to move in a good direction. I can dig this.
Awe, Aedion and Rowan are becoming friends. 
Wait, what did Aelin do? She trapped Lorcan AND Valg? Damn girl, you've got balls
WTF! Lysandra has magic. Oh, I like her even more now.
Oh shit, he's going to ser Sam. Fuck, I'm gonna ball. Yep. Not okay. But I'll be glad when Arobryn is dead.
Damn, Slide. You've got balls!
Dinner and Demons. Let's go.
Mother fucking Arobryn!
Oh, thank goodness. However, that would have been a fun plot twist.
Ding Dong Arobryn is Dead!
Damn, she is calculating, isn't she.

PART TWO: QUEEN OF LIGHT
The magic sentence, “Yes, you can do most things on your own. That doesn't mean you have to.”
Shits about to break loose. And Manon is right in the center of it. 
Finally, the team up. 
Oof, a lot happened in those chapters. But Holy hell, it's about time Rowan and Aelin got “close.” That was hott.
Dammit. I knew Arobryn's death was too easy. Shits about to really go down.
Okay. Our heroes have scouted, the villains have arrived, the plot is moving forward. Which means I'm stopping for now. The avalanche is about to happen, and I need time to let it barrel into me and cover me with dread.
Oh shit! The Valg fear the witches. Interesting. 
Fuck you Choal, you idiot. 
Oooo, shit. That was intense. About time they came together,  and a reason to team up. 
About fucking time Manon woke up. I've been waiting for this!
Ugh, pre-100 pages and it's already starting. I don't know if I'm ready.
Ugh, I'm barely into Chapter 68, Lysandra leaving, the Fae males prepping, Chaol and Aelin walking and my anxiety is fucked.
Fuck me, the Kings KNOWS!!!

ZOD DAMN YOU LORCAN!
YOU BETTER NOT KILL AEDION!
not Chaol, 😭 
Fuck, who was the leopard?
Oh shit, what!!! LYSANDRA!
Fuck me, what just happened? The King is good? Choal is alive? They fucked themselves with freeing magic?
The Witches!!!! Damn. There are powerful women in this section. Kaltain, love.
Ugh, they just need to bang and get it over with.
You paralyzed Chaol! You asshole. But glad he and Nesryn are finally together.
No, I want Elide and Manon together.
These fucking guys, the Duke and Vernon. Of course, things were too good.
But things did end well. About to blow up, but good.
At least this time it's happy tears at the end of a book.
