In this bonus episode of Booked for Two, we’re diving into one of the biggest reader debates in the Throne of Glass fandom: When the hell should you read The Assassin’s Blade?

We’ve got you covered with two sections—because we’re thoughtful like that:

🔹 Spoiler-Free Section – Perfect if you haven’t read it yet and you’re stressing about the right time to dive in. (No spoilers. Not even a whisper about Skull’s Bay. You’re safe.)

🔹 Spoiler Section – For the readers who’ve been through it and want to unpack the heartbreak, foreshadowing, and quiet rage TAB leaves in its wake.

Also in this episode:

🗺️ Which version of Celaena shows up here—and how it changes the way we see Throne of Glass as a whole.

📖 Why the reading order actually matters and which one we swear by (plus, a mini-rant about chaos timelines).

The Assassin’s Blade may be a collection of novellas, but don’t be fooled—this thing hits like a full-canon wrecking ball. Emotional scars included, no extra charge.
