K. Presson 2008-05-13 ch 5,	abuseA while ago, I read the first half of chapter one, and was drawn in. However, I had to save it because I was at work. Now, this story came up again from Getuie --who had read and reviewed my novel. I remembered the story and started reading it again. I find myself getting involved in your story to the point where I now have to catch-up on office work. You should try to get this published. It's an amazing piece of literature that contains great detail, thought out description, and doesn't bog the reader down with Frank Herbert-like endless details. I will continue to read, and probably respond as well. You have the gift. :)
Oblivious.Only.To.You 2008-05-11 ch 83,	abusehave i ever told you how awesome you write? it's like... you describe everything perfectly like i'm there with that character. i feel every emotion, pain, and whatever is going on in that story. isn't it amazing how one small inspiration can lead to a beautifully written fairy tale? (faerie tale?) i hope you have time to write a sequel. and whatever happened to Perrington? He should be killed, since he murdered Aelin's parents. And I love how you write the character's names. they have a unique spelling to it that i love.
Oblivious.Only.To.You 2008-05-11 ch 82,	abusei love how you narrate the end and the beginning. so cool.
Oblivious.Only.To.You 2008-05-11 ch 81,	abuseTHIS IS MY FAVORITE CHAPTER OF ALL TIMES. and this story is the best that i've ever read. OMG OMG OMG you're such a good writer. if this was published, i would buy the first copy. then ask for your autograph.
Venus Smurf1 2008-05-10 ch 83,	abuseI'm sure that this review will be lost among the literally thousands of others that you've received, but I still feel obligated to take a moment and thank you for gracing us with this magnificent story. Simply put, this story is one of the most incredible things I've ever encountered. It has gone beyond mere creativity--you've managed to build something that's gritty and wonderful at the same time, and I'm completely awed by your skill. The characters are more alive than some of the people I know, and though you apologized for the brevity of the wedding, I still feel like I've watched two good friends finally get what they deserve. Thank you for allowing us to share in this adventure with you. You're truly amazing, and I can only say--along with many others, I'm sure--that you seriously need to think about becoming a professional writer. If this isn't fit for publication, then nothing is.
KC 2008-05-10 ch 83, anon.	abuseThis story is amazing and beautiful; filled with wonder and sorrow. No matter how many times I read it, I will always be sad that Aelin didn't end up with Chaol or Raonn, for to be honest, I liked Dorian the least, but then again, the story is about a person far different than myself, so it makes sense that her taste would also be different. I congratulate you on this wonderful piece of literature. One day, I hope to achieve something so great, that it takes your breathe away with each new turn.
In awe 2008-05-06 ch 83, anon.	abusePure genius. Get this published, theres a whole world that doesn't know this site and needs to read this amazing piece of literature. Your characters are amazing, when they cried I cried, when they laughed I laughed, and I want to thank you because this story has corny as it sounds, had a deep affect on me and am truly sorry to see it end.
A.E.R 2008-05-03 ch 1, anon.	abuseCompletly heartwarming piece of literature. I had found this amazing story favorited on many lists I looked at, and was at first reluctant to read it. See, I have never been one for Cinderella. He searches the kingdom for a girl who fits the glass shoe, and only one girl has feet that size pfft. Mainly I assumed that it would be one cliched mess after another. However thank heavens I was exessivly bored one afternoon and finally clicked that button. The Prologue had me intriged. Where were the cliched messes? Political alliances and betrayals? Not a timeless lovestory? Needless to say I couldn't stop reading, and that doesn't happen often. This most likely sounds cheesy to some people, but I honestly laughed, cried, feared, and celebrated right along with the charcters. (P.s. Raonn rocks)
inkydrizzle 2008-04-29 ch 83,	abuseThis story has been up for a quite some time yet only when a friend recommended it to me did I come across it. THANK THE STARS she did.:) Finally finished reading it, which is bittersweet. It's amazing. Really. I'm practically speechless. I was transported into the story and I fell in love with the characters and was awed by your writing. You have such talent. I really hope you publish it soon, let us know in the yahoo groups the second you get word. Keep writing, stay amazing and we love you.;)
Elise 2008-04-29 ch 83, anon.	abuseim afraid that this is the fourth time i have read this in a year...and im not one of those people that has excessive amounts of time on thier hands. So all i have to say is this, since i have reviewed this amazing, lovely, thrilling, (the list goes on an on and on) tale many times already, I want to tell you that the books you wrote about that Aelin felt such a strong attachment too are the way your story is to me. If i could have this as a leather bound book, i can tell you that i would take it everywhere and the pages would be more yellow and used than anything else i own. I guess that is all i can say to sum up the emotion i feel for this story and i hope you understand how much you've touched me and made me repeatedly go back to the beginning and read again. Please try your hardest to get this published, because i want a copy for my future children. (I still plan to read it over and over again when im that old anyways.) so my fourth review after reading this story four times, i vouch that i will be writing one again soon because i just cant stop going on adventures with Aelin. I your life is probably hectic, but remember your loyal and devoted readers. I will endevour to become a publisist so i can publish this book if things still arent working out! thank you! thank you thank you thank you and thanks again!
Merry 2008-04-28 ch 50, anon.	abuseYour Queen of Glass is definitely a story of wonder. Your writing is lilting and beautiful, and the action keeps us reading more and more. For an aspiring writer like me, this is certainly a miracle to see!! But what I love and enjoy most about this is the way you are able to craft every human emotion into your story. I love the way you incoporate life lessons into almost every discussion, and I was literally THERE in the story most of the time. I've never read about a character whose life is so complicated, like Celaena's, and it is truly innovative how you were able to take the simplest things from the classic Cinderella and spin it into a living wonder.
tere-fied 2008-04-27 ch 83,	abuseABSOLUSTELY WONDERFUL. One of the BEST stories I have ever read in my lifetime. I'm so glad I was able to read your story. You're a brilliant writer. Thanks for sharing your talent with us. :D
l i Q i 2008-04-26 ch 83,	abuseThank you so much, this is definitely the most amazing story i've ever read on fictionpress, the details and complication of the plot is extraodinary, and it has brought me infinite amounts of joy, laughter and tears reading this story. I hope you will have this story published as a book, and i cannot wait for the sequel. Please update soon =]
Merry Li 2008-04-24 ch 24,	abuseThis has been more than a delightful read. It held me entralled for hours and hours. The last time I remember being this raptured by a book was maybe two or three years ago. But Queen of Glass... The action never stops, and I can never stop reading it. I love all the different characters you place in here. And I love the extra lengths you go to clarify these characters to us. The friendship between Celaena (beautiful name by the way) and Anuksun is such a sweet one...especially this ending of Chapter Twenty-Three. Unlike the classic Cinderella (in which we really never ever get to SEE her real personality), Celaena is actually a girl with many faults. I like it best though when she reveals the softer part of herself, in which she is scared... This is all I'm going to say before I go onto Chapter Twenty-Five. Thanks!
Merry Li 2008-04-24 ch 11,	abuseIf you had made no mention of the Cinderella tale, I never would have known this was supposed to be connected to Cinderella in any way. It is THAT different. But this difference is also a good thing because it means that you're using your creativity. The aspect I like most about Queen of Glass is that you make a totally disseparate character from the "real" Cinderella. You breathed life in Celaena Sardothien and gave her a personality. I've read many tales of Cinderella (from lots of countries) but never one like this! This is just AWESOME, and like people have been expressing all throughout their posts, you should consider publishing Queen of Glass. It is a total asset to literature. The whole of your story...There's a certain enchantment drawn between your words. I love it! I'm not far; only on chapter ten, and wondering what will happen between Celaena and Kaltain. Happy Writing/Editing! ;) Merry
