I don’t understand the bad reviews on this one!
Adrian and Isolde are going to live rent free in my head. I love them!
There’s a lot of anger and fear within the characters, but it makes sense because of what they go through.

“‘Isolde,’ he repeated quietly, and when i finally met his stare, his face was gentle. ‘You are my light.’
“‘Isolde,’ he repeated quietly, and when i finally met his stare, his face was gentle. ‘You are my light.’
I took his face between my hands.
‘You are my darkness,’ I said and I kissed him.”
-Adrian and Isolde (Ch. 1)
“‘Anything for you,’ he said.
‘Promise me the world.’ I said breathing hard.
‘It’s yours,’ he said.”

Thank you SOURCEBOOKS and NetGalley for the e-arc of Queen of Myth and Monsters by Scarlett St. Clair.
Scarlett St. Claire bring us back to Adrian and Isolde's story with higher stakes, more steamy romance, and enough heartbreak to go around. What I found the most important aspect of the book is the development of Adrian and Isolde's relationship. It has changed from the first book and I thoroughly enjoyed reading their struggle for happiness. St. Claire provides keen insight into the happenings of marriage when it isn't just about passion. Adrian and Isolde are really getting to know each other and how their new roles and trials they face will test the limits of their love.
Isolde is smart and owns how attractive she is. I felt inspired by her intuition and strong mindset to not just accept the choices being made for her. As a woman, it is important to read about other women who do not conform to their new realities and instead choose to shape it their way. She is queen becoming in more ways than one.
It isn't a St.Claire book without the romance and there is plenty of that to be found. To be honest, I almost felt annoyed by the sexier scenese as it felt as though Adrian and Isolde would just avoid their feelings and be physical instead. As I mentioned before, they are still discovering what being married and ruling a kingdom is like together.
There is a lot to discover in this book. The book is the bridge between the first and third book so it is full of new information, side-character highlights, and betrayal that comes at you with an intense force.

This book was sooo hard to finish. the plot barely progressed from the first book and was frankly boring. I skimmed the last 100 pages because I just needed to get it over with. The MMC and FMC have the same unreso ved issues as they did in the first book. The betrayals were predictable and mid.. I wanted to love this series because of the diverse characters but I don't and I don't plan on reading the next book.
I regret to inform anyone reading this that while I loved the spice, I truly did not care about this book. Not the characters, nor the plot, and definitely not the for-shock-value insert-trauma-here.
In this book’s defense, I didn’t have it at the appropriate speed and was really bored for a long time because it wasn’t going fast enough.
