Shiori'anma, the only princess of Kiata, has a secret. Forbidden magic runs in her veins. And on the morning of her betrothal ceremony, Shiori loses control. At first, her mistake seems like a stroke of luck, forestalling the wedding she never wanted, but it also catches the attention of Raikama, her stepmother. A sorceress in her own right, Raikama banishes the young princess, turning her brothers into cranes and warning Shiori that she must speak of it to no one: for with every word that escapes her lips, one of her brothers will die.

Chosen from birth to usher in a new era, Poppy’s life has never been her own. The life of the Maiden is solitary. Never to be touched. Never to be looked upon. Never to be spoken to. Never to experience pleasure. Waiting for the day of her Ascension, she would rather be with the guards, fighting back the evil that took her family, than preparing to be found worthy by the gods. But the choice has never been hers.

Warning: Unnecessary, Heavy Bad Language
- By Rebekah on 07-01-22
Summary
Bloomsbury presents Crown of Midnight by Sarah J. Maas, read by Elizabeth Evans.
The action-packed, heart-wrenching and fantastically addictive sequel to Sarah J. Maas's epic YA fantasy debut Throne of Glass.
Eighteen-year-old Celaena Sardothien is bold, daring and beautiful - the perfect seductress and the greatest assassin her world has ever known. But though she won the king’s contest and became his champion, Celaena has been granted neither her liberty nor the freedom to follow her heart. Celaena faces a choice that is tearing her to pieces: kill in cold blood for a man she hates or risk sentencing those she loves to death. Celaena must decide what she will fight for: survival, love or the future of a kingdom. Because an assassin cannot have it all.... And trying to may just destroy her.

Better than the first one
This review is for the people that didn't really like first book, but are willing to give the series next try.
There is improvement. As story is still predictable, it didn't bother me so much in this book. Characters are less annoying, maybe with exception of captain of the guard, who I still hate. We learn more about the king and his intrigue, which is fairly good story, and saves some (insufferable then) installments from first book.
I grew to like main character. I just wish she wasn't so praised by everyone around, but oh well... young author common habit to do that.
The best part of this book, is that by the end it changes Celenas environment. She is leaving castle and two dorsk behind, hopefully for good, and for the first time I fairly don't know what happens next. Finally!
With all the flaws it is still not bad entertainment.
I will try third book, to see if it gets better. Will post review about how it went.

Everything I hoped it would be and more!
After reading the first book I didn't expect it could get any better but I surprisingly loved the second one even more.
It has to be said that Elizabeth Evans is a fantastic narrator.
Sarah J Maas is a Queen, her writing takes you to worlds that you only dream to be able to imagine.
Lets just say I'm obsessed with the series...on to the next.

This was a ride
This book was great, I read the first one and I was instantly hooked. This one, though, was somehow better than the last one and it's led so well into the next book. So much happened, there was a lot of character development and I really enjoyed the story. I was a bit thrown by the change in character voices a whole book in but I noticed this version was published this year and my throne of glass audiobook is from 2014 or something. I did wonder if that had something to do with the huge change in every character voice but Caleana (forgive my spelling this is an audiobook after all!) I'm hoping as the rest of the audiobooks are from the original publisher date there won't be another inconsistency. If there is I'm going have to try and find an older publication because it may drive me nuts having one book from 2021 with a different narration style! Either way these are great books so far and I'm pretty much trying to find any excuse to binge listen to them (I've even taken up embroidery and I'm 24 😂)

Wow it’s starting to heat up
After reading the ACOTAR series I found it hard to initially get into TOG since I started it a day after finishing ACOTAR and it just felt like it couldn’t compare, but after finishing the first book and then this book I’m hooked - super different to ACOTAR but still same style of writing and brilliant female character. Sometimes hard to separate the different regions since they all have strange names I think it might be clearer if you were reading vs listening or maybe I’m just dumb lmao but it’s worth sticking to the series what an ending!!!
