You all know by now that I typically don't read fantasy. However, I picked this one up at the library after I saw the cover. (I think you know what I mean.)
I was not disappointed in the least by this book. For a fantasy book - or any ya book - it was very clean with only a few thing that had me going ehh.
The characters were addictive and I flew through it as if it were a contemporary novel.
Rating: 4/5
Crude Language: Maybe one or two? I didn't catch any but it's possible I overlooked something.
Romance: a few kisses, none detailed
Spiritual: This fantasy world has multiple gods.
Violence: The main character uses violence only when necessary. She does not like doing it and looks for other ways. ( )

*I got this book for review my thoughts are my own*
I really loved this book so much. It has so many of my favorite elements all my mixed together in such a unique novel. I especially loved the former friend comes back to work with the princess, the lost princess, the prince who is conflicted and just some much political intigue. I thought it was such a fast pace novel. It was super hard to put down and the pace even thought it was alot of world building was done so well. I really loved this book and the lead character. This is def one of my favorite reads of the month. I can't wait for book 2... now i must wait :(

I couldn’t finish or even read much of it. It was too much darkness and violence for me to be able to read it.

I tried to push through the first bit but I couldn’t do it and I thought why spend my time on something that clearly isn’t going to work for me when there are other books that will be great for me.

Looking forward to reading book #2 to see what happens with Theodosia and her people. ( )
