Like, part of it is sad, like spoiled kids growing up sheltered in the nasty circles they do makes for horrible people and children.. but she had chances to be a better person.
I still loved the writing

This novella is the backstory of Queen Levana from the Lunar Chronicles series. She did not have an easy childhood as she was constantly bullied by her older sister and was ignored by her parents. She used a glamor (false identity) to manipulate a man who didn't love her into marrying her.
She is abusive, condescending, manipulative, controlling and yet she cannot understand why people don't love her. Especially her staff and the people of Lunar. She takes everything she wants by force.
