 Disclaimer: All reviews provided are my genuine thoughts and opinions. I would also like to thank NetGalley and the publishers for the opportunity to be an ARC reader. 3.5 🌟 Courting War by Hazel St. Lewis is a good casual read. I felt it had a kind of "300" aesthetic, and I appreciated the badass female main character (FMC). It was enlightening to get a glimpse into what living with learning disabilities is like. While the overall pacing of the storyline is engaging, some aspects were harder for me to connect with. For example, the world-building incorporates an almost Greek gods-inspired setting yet includes modern elements like electricity, which felt a bit inconsistent. Overall, I think this was a good read, especially if you're not seeking something with super high stakes, and I can only anticipate the author improving in her subsequent works.
