It has been so long since I have read a book where the female protagonist is as amazing as Celaena. I am not saying there aren't many books with strong female characters but they usually become simpering nitwits when it comes to their love interest. That was not the case in this book. And to top it all off this is a high fantasy book!! The female characters are often not as fleshed out as the male characters in the high fantasy genre but kudos to author Sarah J Maas for pulling it off. I cannot wait to read Crown of Midnight. <3
