Kingdom of Ash
Hold onto your seats because 'Kingdom of Ash,' the epic conclusion to Sarah J. Maas' 'Throne of Glass' series, is a wild, emotional rollercoaster that left me breathless. I devoured this book with a mix of excitement and anxiety, unable to turn the pages fast enough. The culmination of this series is nothing short of spectacular, leaving a permanent mark on my soul.
The reveals, twists, fighting, and character growths in 'Kingdom of Ash' are unparalleled. Maas weaves together intricate plot threads with finesse, delivering moments that will keep you on the edge of your seat until the very end. It's hard to pinpoint just three favorite elements from this masterpiece, but here are some standout side characters that stole my heart:
The Little People
Evangeline
The Crochans
Without giving too much away, the significance behind lines like "Live, Manon. Live." and "Take it off" hit me like a ton of bricks, evoking a whirlwind of emotions and heart-wrenching moments that will stay with me long after the final page.
One of the most powerful messages of this series is the celebration of female strength and friendship. Characters like Elide embody resilience and resourcefulness, proving that true power lies within one's determination and cunning.
As I bid farewell to this beloved series, I'm filled with a bittersweet sense of satisfaction. While I'm sad to see it end, I couldn't be happier with the way Maas concluded this epic saga. 'Kingdom of Ash' is a triumphant finale that cements its place as a timeless masterpiece.
