In this episode of Booked for Two, we’re heading deep into the dunes with the first half of The Assassin and the Desert from The Assassin’s Blade by Sarah J. Maas—chapters 1 through 6. Celaena’s landed in the Red Desert for her next mission, and it’s basically the Assassin Hogwarts meets sandstorm bootcamp.

No friends. No weapons. No Arobynn. Just heat, attitude, and a lot of stairs.

🔹 Celaena’s stripped of her blades and thrown into assassin school with major Cobra Kai energy.
🔹 Mute Master of the Silent Assassins? Low-key terrifying. High-key impressive.
🔹 New girl Ansel looks like a walking red flag wrapped in a tragic backstory—and Celaena? Intrigued.
🔹 We’ve got rooftop brooding, mysterious missions, and sand everywhere (Anakin Skywalker would be pissed).
🔹 The girls steal some horses… because of course they do.

This week is all about trust issues, silent tests, and a little “mean girls in the desert” energy. And next week? Shit gets real.
