Reviews with content warning for Sexual content - Glint

Better than Gild (though that’s not saying much) and good enough that I’m invested in the story. The bones are there for some enthralling storytelling, but something is just missing the mark for me.

Is it predictable? Yes, is it good? Also yes. It also wasn’t as spicy as I believed it to be, but I think the third book is spicier? All that aside, the Wrath are my favourites along with Keg and the mender!

Glint

This series! I can not get enough of the #platedprisoner books.

I loved the main character. I loved the world that they lived in. It’s a Fae, King Midas Retell, love story. This is the second in the series. I’m so glad I already bought the third.

I truly believe it deserved a 5 out of 5 star rating ⭐️

First read: 4 - ⭐⭐⭐⭐
Second read: 4.5 - ⭐⭐⭐⭐💫

This book was a huge step-up from Gild. The world-building is quite intricate, but once the story kicked off, it KICKED OFF.

There was an amazing plot twist (more than one, actually) which was masterfully written and I quite enjoyed having Kennedy go more in-depth with our characters. This is also the first book in the series to be told from multiple point-of-views, including Auren's, Malina's, and Midas' perspectives (I'm not counting that one chapter in the previous book) so that enhanced the story even more.

In conclusion, the book is entertaining, not too long and the characters are likable. That is all I usually ask of my fantasy books so I'm more than happy. Also, the Plated Prisoner series gives me such From Blood and Ash vibes so it's got that going for it too.
