Kingdom of Ash: Sarah J. Maas

Aelin has risked everything to save her people―but at a tremendous cost. Locked within an iron coffin by the Queen of the Fae, Aelin must draw upon her fiery will as she endures months of torture. Aware that yielding to Maeve will doom those she loves keeps her from breaking, though her resolve begins to unravel with each passing day…

With Aelin captured, Aedion and Lysandra remain the last defense line to protect Terrasen from utter destruction. Yet, they soon realize that the many allies they’ve gathered to battle Erawan’s hordes might not be enough to save them. Scattered across the continent and racing against time, Chaol, Manon, and Dorian are forced to forge their own paths to meet their fates. Hanging in the balance is any hope of salvation―and a better world.

And across the sea, his companions unwavering beside him, Rowan hunts to find his captured wife and queen―before she is lost to him forever.

As the threads of fate weave together at last, all must fight, if they are to have a chance at a future. Some bonds will grow even deeper, while others will be severed forever in the explosive final chapter of the Throne of Glass series.

This book was everything I wanted and more. It was HUGE, it was GLORIOUS, and it was HEARTBREAKING.  I cried so much it's kind of ridiculous.
Now let me begin, this book was seriously everything I wanted and more. It's the epic finale to this amazing book series.
Honestly, is this going to be a review? Probs not. It's probably going to be me ranting about how much I love this book. 
SPOILERS ARE COMING!! YOU HAVE BEEN WARNED. Besides, the book has been out for a couple months, so...
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
Anyways! Seriously I have so many feels when it comes to the Kingdom of Ash, just as many as A Court of Wings and Ruin<--- Click here. The book starts about 3 months after the events of BOTH Tower of Dawn and Empire of Storms with the most heart wrenching beautiful intro story thing in the points of view from both Aelin and Rowan:

“Once upon a time, in a land long since burned to ash, there lived a young princess who loved her kingdom …”

throws self into a dark abyss to cry. That little intro sets the tone for how the first part of the book will progress. Like Sarah J. Maas's usual writing, we will be jumping around perspective. A lot of the beginning is from Aelin's perspective, and it introduces us to the torture she has endured these past few months, including the mental trauma. I honestly felt like this was reminiscent of when she was in the salt mines, in regards that she fought at first. Then settled that her circumstances were irreversible, then regained her spirit and escaped. It was honestly pretty epic.... and I cried a lot. It was seriously so cool that Aelin did save herself in terms of getting out of the building. But it took the help of Rowan, Gavriel, Lorcan, and Elide to actually officially save Aelin and get her to safety. That was literally all I wanted; a lie was for Aelin to finally allow herself to get help and do not have to do everything by herself. Oh, she tries, she tries so hard, but none of her friends will let her suffer alone.

I'm just going to finish this now, two years later, by saying I love this book series so much. And the ending was perfect even though I want so much more. It was beautiful growing with these characters and seeing how they grew. This story is beautiful, and though it's not for everyone, I hope you give it a chance. 
Until next time readers <3
