Apparently I’ve read four books with assassins in them! I’m kind of intrigued. I know I need to read more though, because the idea of assassins is very intriguing. Angelfire may be a little hazy, because it’s not like she kills humans. She kills reapers, but I mean I guess that should count. I mean, Nym is an Elven assassin.
The only one that I haven’t read is Legend, and I know that I need to read this ASAP. I didn’t really like Graceling right, if I’m being super honest, but still gotta include it.
See? I stuck to five books this time! I’m eventually learning the rules. So have you read any of these books? I know I left out an obvious one that I also didn’t read – *ahem* Maas wrote it – since I feel like a lot of people are going to include that one. Should I prioritize Legend? I mean, I know I should because it’s Marie Lu, but like, even more than before?
Let me know, lovelies.
i read legend yearssssss ago and it was one of my favouritr series at the time so i wanna reread it getting to the new book that’s coming out this year to ser if my feelings have changed 🙂

I actually hadn’t heard of the first two on this list!! I’m going to add them to my TBR right now!! I LOVED Graceling, and liked Legend, but I’m not a huge Marie Lu fan.

The second one recently came out! I think it’s on Amazon if you want to check it out. And yeah! I totally didn’t hear about Angelfire until I was looking on GoodReads! I absolutely loved it 🙂 I hope you love them both too!
Ahh man I’m sorry to hear that, but I’m glad that you liked Legend.

Great list 🙂 I haven’t read any of these but I do love a good assassin story! So according to my GR, I have actually read Graceling but no matter how many recaps I read of it I don’t actually remember a thing about it. Haha I rated it high though so I’m wondering how the hell that’s possible when I can’t recall it at all! I might have to re-read it 🙈
