i almost stopped reading at a lot of points throughout the book out of frustration with Tedros' naivety. but thankfully i did not. i am constantly amazed by chainani's brain!

WOW Ok I think i've processed my thoughts

One True King is probably one of the best finale books I have ever read. It's got so much action and the existing plot doesn't fizzle out - it just keeps going getting all the more exciting and terrifying right down to the last chapter. But it's also got the last few bits of humour and character growth and romantic moments to tie the book all up.

OTK has the nicest closure ever and it was just such a beautiful way to wrap up the series that I've been with since like year 4 or 5. I absolutely love One True King and I think it did so well to wrap up a gripping, adventurous series.
