3 stars ! this has lots of kiera cass selection energy, but it's slightly better. there were four points of view, which seems like two or three too many, especially with daphne's pov because she was really just there to be a bad person, and her pov didn't lend too much motivation for her actions and just kept reinforcing that she's a mean person

I don't love that this book ended with none of the conflict resolved, but I was intrigued by the book and enjoyed listening to it. It was an interesting way to explore the stories that could come from a royal family, without writing about a country with actual royal families.

the dialogue felt unnatural at times, and the plot was really predictable, but it was a fun and easy read. i think it sufferred from too many perspectives (4), i honestly wish the whole thing was beatrice’s story since hers was definitely the most interesting/enjoyable to me.
