Week 43 Review: Sorcery of Thorns

From Goodreads:
From the New York Times bestselling author of An Enchantment of Ravens comes an imaginative fantasy about an apprentice at a magical library who must battle a powerful sorcerer to save her kingdom.

All sorcerers are evil. Elisabeth has known that as long as she has known anything. Raised as a foundling in one of Austermeer's Great Libraries, Elisabeth has grown up among the tools of sorcery—magical grimoires that whisper on shelves and rattle beneath iron chains. If provoked, they transform into grotesque monsters of ink and leather. She hopes to become a warden, charged with protecting the kingdom from their power.

Then an act of sabotage releases the library's most dangerous grimoire. Elisabeth's desperate intervention implicates her in the crime, and she is torn from her home to face justice in the capital. With no one to turn to but her sworn enemy, the sorcerer Nathaniel Thorn, and his mysterious demonic servant, she finds herself entangled in a centuries-old conspiracy. Not only could the Great Libraries go up in flames, but the world along with them.

As her alliance with Nathaniel grows stronger, Elisabeth starts to question everything she's been taught—about sorcerers, about the libraries she loves, even about herself. For Elisabeth has a power she has never guessed, and a future she could never have imagined. 

My first review of Sorcery of Thorns
My Review:
This book is just so fantastic! I loved it the first time, and it was an excellent read the second, knowing where things were going to go, and just loving the journey! This world is so amazing and wonderful to read about, and I really do hope that we'll get another story set in it, even a short story or novella, because I just want more! There's just so amazing elements in this book that come together really well! 

Elizabeth is a fantastic character! I just love her love for the library, she knows it's contents are dangerous, and she's respectful of that! She's been raised in on the of the branches, and it's not like that's a typical thing! I loved her views of the world! 

Knowing who the bad guy was, what the plan was, it was really interesting to see all these pieces coming together! An watching that along side Elizabeth and Nathaniel, well, I loved their chemistry and banter, so watching both plots was a delight! 

I still absolutely love that ending, of the library fighting back, and of the teamwork of our gang of three! And how Silas doesn't answer to his demon summoning name, but to Silas, that is just really perfect end to this book! 

I love this book so much, and more would be just so very much appreciated!
