Empire of Storms (Throne of Glass, #5)
Sarah J. Maas
Kingdoms will collide. The long path to the throne has only just begun for Aelin Galathynius as war looms on the horizon. Loyalties have been broken and bought, friends have been lost and gained, and those who possess magic find themselves at odds with those who don't. With her heart sworn to the warrior-prince by her side, and her fealty pledged to the people she is determined to save, Aelin will delve into the depths of her power to protect those she loves. But as monsters emerge from the horrors of the past, and dark forces become poised to claim her world, the only chance for salvation will lie in a desperate quest that may mark the end of everything Aelin holds dear. In this breathtaking fifth installment of the New York Times bestselling Throne of Glass series, Aelin will have to choose what—and who—to sacrifice if she's to keep the world of Erilea from breaking apart.
HOW am I supposed to read TOD with zero resolution to everything that just happened 😭
4Everyone is too happy and I’m already crying over it…I know I’m not going to be able to handle the last bit of this book

0I knew the cliffhanger was coming and it still shocked me when the book actually ended. Empire of Storms moved VERY quick and had a LOT going on at once. I can definitely see both sides of why people decide to either do the tandem read or not because there’s definitely tons to keep track of in here. I really enjoyed that you can almost see each individual storyline as they converge and before veering off to go their separate ways. There truly is so much at stake for everyone which makes the story seem all the more realistic; there’s not just one main goal we are trying to get to. Although I would love to find out what happens and how this story ends, I am grateful for the slight reprieve TOD is supposed to be before diving into KOA.

As I write this the tears are streeaming down my face.
Never in my life have I ever felt so much emotion from a book before.
I mean I have felt every emotion you can think of from reading this book.
Sadness…you got it
Betrayal…you got it
Optimistic…you got it
Desperate…you got it
Literally every emotion ever.
I mean come on. That ending. It was so dramatic. It had me hating every single character and loving every single character.
Sarah J. Maas has never ceased to amaze me. She is my role model in life. I wish I had an eighth of her skill. I can barely write a 500 word review on her book without feeling sucky. Imagine writing the entire Throne of Glass series which has about 1,393,501 words. (That is probably not exact, some books I could not find the exact total so I took the best guess the websites could come up with.) I love Maas and everything she does.
Most readers have already read the series and if you have not I cannot do much in ways of reviewing it that does not spoil previous books. But, if you have not read the Throne of Glass series, READ IT! It has magic. It has adventure. It has a bad*ss b*tch who does is a role model for girls around the world (other than the whole assassin thing). The love stories and love triangles are amazing. It is just all around amazing and you will cry. I promise, you will cry.
This is literally one of the best published works out there that someone will ever read.
I have two more books of the series to read. I will be sad to let it go but watch out for my other reviews about it.
As always, thanks for reading
