5. Crown of Midnight (Throne of Glass #2) by Sarah J. Maas

Goodreads: From the throne of glass rules a king with a fist of iron and a soul black as pitch. Assassin Celaena Sardothien won a brutal contest to become his Champion. Yet Celaena is far from loyal to the crown. She hides her secret vigilantly; she knows that the man she serves is bent on evil.

Keeping up the deadly charade becomes increasingly difficult when Celaena realizes she is not the only one seeking justice. As she tries to untangle the mysteries buried deep within the glass castle, her closest relationships suffer. It seems no one is above questioning her allegiances—not the Crown Prince Dorian; not Chaol, the Captain of the Guard; not even her best friend, Nehemia, a foreign princess with a rebel heart.

Then one terrible night, the secrets they have all been keeping lead to an unspeakable tragedy. As Celaena's world shatters, she will be forced to give up the very thing most precious to her and decide once and for all where her true loyalties lie...and whom she is ultimately willing to fight for.

My thoughts:
Omgosh!! This book was so intense that I actually read this book in about a day in a half. I couldn't put it down. I laughed, I cried, I yelled. Man, its got everything you could want in a book. Its a bummer that the 3rd book doesn't come out till September 2014. I'm addicted to Celaena and Chaol.

 This book is HIGHLY RECOMMENDED!!!!
