Fantasy politics is some of the hardest stuff to write about, but this book series is doing it beautifully.

fun while reading but not super memorable. when reading please note this is not the enemies to lovers romance that it is advertised as. the focus is more towards the politics than romance. and as for the romance itself... its not my favourite. i was super into it when i read it for the first time but once the hype died down i realised that i didnt actually care that much. and this is entirely a personal thing. there was chemistry but there was no substance to the actual relationship. idk

This is honestly one of the best books I’ve read in a long time! I love this interpretation of the Fae World. This book had me on the edge of my seat so many times~ the characters written were amazing and made me feel sooo many emotions. Love, hatred; disgust, sadness, fear, etc. I can not recommend this book enough! The end has left me mouth agape and ready for the second book!
