I really enjoyed the magic system in this book! Very Pokémon vibes but in a very majestically way which I found really cool and enjoyed more then the romance!
Definitely not what I expected. It took me a few tries to push on with this book. The premise was just so unlike anything else I've read and at first that was off putting but after a few chapters I realized it was amazing, The story is unique. Not just a fresh take on an established concept but a truly unique story that I honestly can't really compare to anything else. The world-building is fantastic. The characters are thoroughly developed. And the story line manages to suck you in and leaves you wanting more. I already cannot wait for the next installment, Leena is everything I want out of a heroine. She's brave and stubborn and willing to bend the rules when necessary. She's not some wilting flower and watching the bit of romance unfold between her and Noc gives you the feels in all the right places. I cannot recommend Kingdom of Exiles enough. If you love the action and character style of the Kate Daniels series mixed with the imagination of Harry Potter then you'll love this book!

This book was like Fantastic Beast meets Beauty and the Beast. In this book you will find a strong heroine who has been wronged because she tried to speak up. You will find a grumpy villain who gets the girl. I found it very hard to put down at times.

I can't believe these words are about to come out of my mouth but I think the romance overshadowed the fantasy aspect of this story. I feel so dirty just saying that. I love romance. But I wanted more world-building (again, who am I) and more details about Leena and her backstory. I'm guessing that's coming in a later book. The writing is good and what world-building we got was fantastic, I just ended the book feeling like something was missing and I wanted more. But that's what book 2 is for and I will definitely be continuing this series.
