adventurous emotional inspiring slow-paced
  • Plot- or character-driven? A mix

  • Loveable characters? Yes

3.0

This was alright. I feel like not a lot happened? Or maybe it just felt that way because everything just sort of happened to the FMC and it was as if she was just along for the ride. I mostly read this because the second book in this series (although technically it’s a prequel), The Hero and the Crown, is one of my favorite author’s favorite books and I was curious. This wasn’t bad, but I’m hoping the next is better character-wise.
