"Waiting On" Wednesday #12: Queen of Shadows by Sarah J. Maas

By -

Have you all read the first three books in this series? Or picked up the anthology of stories?!

This fourth novel will be the death of us... am I right?! 

If you haven't checked out this series, go over to the fansite HERE. These first three books are so worth reading... binge reading! Lately I feel like all I've done is recommend series that aren't finished. I'm sorry all of you who like closure, but you really don't want to miss out on these.



DETAILS:
  • Title: Queen of Shadows
  • Publisher: Bloomsbury USA Children's
  • Publishing date: September 1, 2015
  • Author(s): Sarah J. Maas
  • Series: Throne of Glass #4


Wanna see the UK cover too?! 


Do you like one better than the other? 

SUMMARY: 
Everyone Celaena Sardothien loves has been taken from her. But she's at last returned to the empire—for vengeance, to rescue her once-glorious kingdom, and to confront the shadows of her past . . .

She will fight for her cousin, a warrior prepared to die just to see her again. She will fight for her friend, a young man trapped in an unspeakable prison. And she will fight for her people, enslaved to a brutal king and awaiting their lost queen's triumphant return.

Celaena’s epic journey has captured the hearts and imaginations of millions across the globe. This fourth volume will hold readers rapt as Celaena’s story builds to a passionate, agonizing crescendo that might just shatter her world.

As always thanks to Breaking the Spine for hosting.

      Throne of Glass series is a really good read. Hope you get to it soon. Of course, a lot of people wait until a series is over before starting so I understand completely on waiting.

      It's a good read series for sure, although I think you've got some time. :)

      I waffle between which covers I like best. They're both so pretty.

    Yesss! I can't wait for Queen of Shadows any longer, I need it! Especially now when I'm rereading the series as to prepare myself for QoS's release :) I myself prefer the UK versions, just because I'm used to those ones. The US versions have more spunk to them though :)

      Having read them all in a row makes it even harder of a wait. So much goodness and you don't want it to end. I waffle between which cover I like better. The UK one has more detailed look at the character but then the colors stand out on the American. It's hard to choose. Happy Reading! :)

      Yeah... Sarah's pretty prolific right now too. She started another series already before the Throne of Glass series was complete. Have you seen ACOTAR around? That's her too. :)

      It's nice when you can binge read. The pain in waiting is oh so torturous especially after you read three books in a row and then wham... you've got to wait nine months to be able to read more. You know what I mean, don't you?

    I haven't read anything by Sarah J Maas, but I have a follow a ton of blogs who really love her books. I'm not sure her work is what I'm normally into, though seeing her name around so much has definitely got me intrigued.

      No pressures to read her, especially if you are not into fantasy. She has wonderful character development and the story is good. Definitely intriguing worthy.

Thanks to the  Broke and the Bookish  for hosting. If you follow me on Goodreads, you'll know I'm about 21 books behind my goal of reading 100 books this year. No pressure! None, right? Anyone else panic when they log onto Goodreads or feel awfully proud when they're going on to write a review?

Thanks to the  Broke and the Bookish  for hosting. So there's a lot of overlap with this list and the beach reads from a couple of weeks ago. However, I did already get Jackaby and Throne of Glass books off the list. Do hope to get more reviews written... and I'm a Percy Pack blogger for Fangirlish so it's going to be a lot of fun over there if you want to check out the special posts for the 10th Anniversary celebration of that series.  To All the Boys I Loved Before by Jenny Han P.S.

#TopTenTuesday: Ten Authors I Read the Most

Thanks to the  Broke and the Bookish  for hosting. So I am pretty pleased with this list. Unsurprising is how many of these authors are series creators. Really, yeah... I have a tendency to read all the books in a series whether I like the later books or not. OCD bookish tendencies, uhm... yeah.  Per usual, I shall link to the Goodreads pages of these authors in hopes of you finding someone you end up loving and supporting by either requesting a copy for your library or purchasing a copy for yourself. J. K. Rowling Of course, I have read all seven of the Harry Potter novels, the Fantastic Beasts and Quidditch Through the Ages, The Beedle Bard stories and Very Good Lives. Also, I read Casual Vacancy and own both the Robert Galbraith novels to date. Julia Quinn I have read every single book Julia Quinn has written. EVERY. SINGLE. ONE. There's not a book out she's written that I have not read. I ad...
