I have to admit that going through one star reviews of SJM books is one of my guilty pleasures. The stuff people post on there is hilarious!

[cazgreene]

Can’t believe that none of the reviews mentioned how a supposed deadly assassin who can use every kind of weapon can’t handle a pool cue - and wtf is a pool cue doing in a completely fantasy world? And how the hell does she not wake up when the captn is creepily staring at her from her unlocked bedroom door WHEN SHE’S SUPPOSED TO BE A HYPER ALERT ASSASSIN

[e.v.]

To be honest tho, I agree with the reviewers. And I defenitely hate this type of books - "badass heroine who is way too powerful and also happens to be the most beautiful creature that walks the earth, hence all this romance in the book!" it's just... nah I'll pass.

I read ACOTAR and there's no way I could be induced to read another book by SJM (unless I was to be handsomely compensated for my time and mental to the tune of $5k?)

She supposedly started writing this at 16



You can tell

😂😆🤣 These are hilarious. That last one...!!! Dead.

Love ToG (series as a whole) though 😆😜💜

[aeshiryzenaeschirett]

So much respect to everyone who dislike this book.

“I can’t cover Stormlight Archives with Throne of Glass” —> loved that.

Real talk though, this book was overhyped and it was soooo disappointing. The supposed great scenes were ironically off-screen and summarized. She was described to be the 'best assassin' but most of the time she was the one getting spooked and barely shown any credentials of being a competent one at that.

The pacing is 'blah' and most of the attention was given to dresses and giggling about the prince. A person who has to fight for her freedom won't lament on how thin she got in prison or how slavery may have taken away her beauty (which was denied by almost every character in the book) so instead of being a well-rounded female character, she came off as arrogant, whiny and flat-out vain.

[Blazemerald]

Never seen reviews be more accurate.

Throne of Glass is terrible and the sequels devolve further from a Fantasy novel to ""which character is going to have sex with which next?"

The characters are copy/pasted with different names. And I have not come across such a MarySue character in a VERY long time, and the MC is might be the biggest example.

The guy who took advice from his girlfriend: "The kind one should've expected out of a rabid Twilight fan." OH MY GOSH, I'M TEARING UP!

Seriously, I love these videos! I hate Sarah J. Maas books with a passion, so I'm just happy to crack up at these scathing reviews along with everyone else. XD

[annaj]

Actually, this is one of my favorite series i have ever read. i think the beginning was off on a rocky start, but after you are farther into the series you become so emotionally attached to the characters that it comes to the point where you cry when they cry. This series left me scarred in the most amazing way possible.

[joannaciechanowska]

I'm in the middle of 4th book of ToG and I'm litteraly hearbroken... Sure I was prepared for loads of handsome princes, prom dresses and not that deep dialogues and it was totally fine with me, I like that kind of stuff, but I also expected a love story. A great, epic love story that overcomes obstacles! But instead I got many illogical and shallow relationships. And it just make me sad and so disappointed. I'll never be fooled again Sarah J. Maas!

[ellstaveley]

I can relate to a lot of these reviews! The PLOT of the series (outside of the 101 love stories) is really good and well developed but I find the character development, traits and actions of the characters to be completely implausible. The character's personalities make little sense and I have a hard time believing they are capable of simply being themselves aside from perhaps 2 characters... Arobynn and Manon. Even the latter as the series comes to a close feels like she's losing everything about her that made her such a special character.

The main character is the worst in the book and it's almost as if it's the immature suppressed teenager dwelling deep within S.J.Maas that she always wanted to unleash on the world. Quite frankly this character is toxic. The more time she spends around other characters, they all seem to blend into her. She literally sucks the life out of interesting characters.

Lastly, what's with all the love story plots? What is this? The Valentine's Day movie?

[rekha]

This. Video. Is. LIFE! I agree 100% with everything, although I enjoyed the first couple of books. Especially the last one, it basically sums up the entire series, which literally becomes a romance with a little bit of plot.

[enescustef]

I didn't read the book, but at least now i know that she's a deadly assasin :)

[swethanishtala]

I was debating whether to buy throne of glass! I got my answer. Thank you, Elliot! <3

[diannepolmanter]

If you want a good assassin then enjoy Robin Hobbs books in the Farseer Trilogy

[GirlAboutLibrary]

lolol I LOVE this. I haven't read these, but it sounds like from these reviews I probably wouldn't be able to suspend disbelief for it either. I LOL'd at the cardboard one!

[safinan]
