I put off reading this series because I was worried it would constantly remind me of Red Queen or even Hunger Games. My sister recommended it and promised there was no way I'd be comparing them. Boy, was she right! Never would I have guessed this series would include magic or be nearly as interesting as it is so far. Despite the strange spelling and pronunciations (yes, I found the page with the correct terms), I was immediately enraptured with Celaena. She's such a spitfire, full of sass and attitude; her sarcasm reminded me so much of myself. From the beginning I had a soft spot for Dorian, though I fear what he can become later on down the story line (honestly, his sarcasm drew me to him as well). Chaol is also such a sweetheart and soft, in his own way. For probably 85% of this book, I was #TeamDorian but I became #TeamChaol before it was finished. Of course, whether I stick with Chaol or not remains to be seen. Throne of Glass was riveting and, though it may not have necessarily had me guessing, it certainly had me at the edge of my seat. So glad I finally started reading it!

Lee KM Pallatina (951 KP) rated Friends in TV
Aug 30, 2019
siblings Ross and monica Gellar (still suffering with sibling rivalry) monicas neighbours from across the hall Joey tribbiani (a struggling actor, with the IQ of a child but a heart of gold) and Chandler Bing (the groups comedian and Ross's college roommate) monica's High school bestie Rachel Green ( queen Rachel. Who does whatever she wants in her little Rachel land) & phoebe buffay (wacky, unpredictable and very odd).
The characters and their daily lives are what makes this show great as it mirrors the reality of every day people, although there have been shows since it ended that have had a similar impact on viewers, none have truly come close to being as genuine.
Heart warming storylines, legendary one liners and quotes we all still use today, there's Love, Laughter, Lust, Loss and great cameos from brad Pitt, Jeff Goldblum, Robin Williams, Paul Rudd, Bruce Willis and so many more, it's easy to see why after nearly 20yrs since it ended, it's still here.
Its 2019 & I have personally watched this show from beginning to end (with a little help from Netflix) 7 times an will continue to do so.

(The special edition of the film is nearly 20 minutes longer and has some interesting moments but in my opinion slows things down a bit too much and you can see why these scenes were removed for the theatrical version)
