I held on, but reading this story started to feel like a broken tape record, not advancing the plot nor developing the supposed sapphic romance. I did like the beginning, but about half way through the book, it started to drag and got boring very quickly. Also, I felt that the two love interests didn’t actual had attraction for each other, more as someone who can understand the other and can “match” in strength and power, not a romantic, intimate connection.
I wish I enjoyed this better, but I rather not waste my time and disappointment by not reading the last 60 pages with no romance development.

I happened to stumble across the day it released, and I immediately knew I had to have it. Like this book literally has everything I love. Enemies to lovers? Yes. Sapphic? Hell yeah. Okay I feel like there's more but these two are the most important ones.
I really enjoyed this story, but it was almost predictable in a sense. My predictions actually didn't happen, which I felt was mildly surprising, but I was okay with it. But the book didn't absolutely blow my mind like I feel it should have, but I still enjoyed it a lot!! The only reason I gave it four stars instead of five is because of that lack of jaw dropping ending, and the history/politics were a bit confusing. Luckily the author's note at the end clarifies it a bit more, but not much since it only served as inspiration. Luckily it was fairly easy to ignore and still understand the story. If you read it, you'll know what I mean!
Overall, I really enjoyed this book and am hoping we get to see more of these amazing characters <3
