the stupid horse was the best thing about this book.
the writing was enchanting at first, but as the story went on it got very annoying. it felt like the author was more concerned with cramming in metaphors than with writing decent characters and an engaging plot.
the otherworld could have been an amazing concept if we had gotten an ounce of worldbuilding, and there’s not much to say about the plot because nothing interesting happened. it moved too fast, and too slow, and there wasn’t enough detail about more important things like the magic system or the horoscopes??
the romance was very instalove and cringy, which is not my thing. at all.
all in all, the star-touched queen had so much potential, but it missed the mark.
