I absolutely loved the Remnant Chronicles series, and, for the first 60 pages or so of this book, I feared it wouldn’t live up to my expectations. However, thankfully, I was very wrong!

The story and its characters were captivating. I love love LOVED all of the moments with/things we learned about the original Remnant Chronicles characters, and I loved getting to know Kazi, Jase, and all of the other new characters.

Reading the Remnant Chronicles before this duology isn’t a necessity, but it definitely adds additional layers, which I appreciated. There are so many parallels between Lia and Kazi, their experiences, their feelings, etc.

  • forced proximity 
  • dagger to the throat 
  • knife wife vibes
  • kinda enemies to lovers but also i don’t know if i would call them enemies they just hate and are annoyed by each other
  • both love interests perspectives!!!
  • they just love each other so much but don’t wanna admit it 
  • pretty boy nickname <3
  • short chapters
  • the ballenger family has such an interesting dynamic and i liked seeing them so protective of each other 

This book was so so so good, and I enjoyed it so much more than I thought I would. Literally each time I put it down I was excited/happy when I got to read more of it, and it was very easy to read, and very enjoyable. And I am very excited to read the sequel but after that ending i need it now cause i’m confused.

Dance of Thieves leans heavily into the enemies-to-lovers romance trope, which was how I mainly saw this book being advertised by other readers. It's also a spinoff, and while it delivers as a romance the plot is definitely difficult to understand without having read the main series. It was comprehensible, but a lot of the worldbuilding probably went over my head and I didn't really care so much about the plot.
