rebecanunez's review against another edition

Perdón pero no pude. Cero conexión. Llegue al capítulo 5 y lo abandoné. No es para mi aparentemente.

• Plot- or character-driven? A mix
• Strong character development? It's complicated
• Loveable characters? It's complicated
• Diverse cast of characters? N/A
• Flaws of characters a main focus? It's complicated

realmente no me lo he conseguido acabar, se me estaba haciendo mucha bola y quizás no era el mejor momento de seguir leyéndolo. Lo volveré a intentar en otro momento a ver si me engancha o no.

Sapphic longing, everyone is queer, so much built-in sad, Henry IV and V Shakespeare retelling. 

The audiobook is read spectacularly by Jessica Hayles, get this actor their flowers.

I had to mark this one as a DNF. I tried to get farther into this story a few times but I just couldn't get into it. It feels like there were other books before it which I did not realize when I requested it . I really wish I could have gotten into it but its not for me

someonetookit's review

I had such high hopes for this book. I loved Strange Grace, I liked Queens of Innis Lear (for the most part). But this was so convoluted and hard to follow that after spending almost 2 hours reading, I was literally 11% of the way through. It has taken me almost 7 months of picking it up and putting it down to get to almost half way...

So, I think that the three main POVs are supposed to be friends but most of the time, it felt like there was zero love between them. Also Hal seems like a complete twit.

While I so badly wanted to finish this, I just can't. My husband has been telling me for months to just DNF it but I was determined to try. I would usually make sure to blog about anything I have received from the publisher but it would just be 1000 words of me saying this book is extremely confusing and at times very frustrating to comprehend.

Im sure there is an audience out there for this one. Alas I am simply not it

Al final si que l'he acabat 🥲 hi ha coses del llibre que no s'aguanten per enlloc i estan molt tretes de la màniga, però en general m'ha molat la màgia i la naturalesa que surt, molt de bruixa.

5.0

I wasn't sure about this adaptation at first, but the more the characters and their relationships developed and the more tension mounted the more I came to trust Gratton's ability to deliver. Great story, great ending.
