Coroa da Meia-Noite (Trono de Vidro, #2)

“If you can't be a queen, you can at least be a monster.”

Celaena chooses to act as the King's assassin to protect her friends. It makes you realize how heavy secrets get when love is the reason you keep them.

“He loved her, and she was a killer.”

Chaol keeps trying to fit Celaena into a safe, predictable box. He loves a version of her that doesn't really exist.

“The princess is dead. Long live the princess.”

Nehemia knew exactly what her sacrifice would trigger. Real friendship sometimes means letting someone hate you so they finally find their own strength.

“Knowledge is a weapon.”

The secret library beneath the palace feels like a graveyard for truth. Some history is buried because the winners are terrified of the past.
