Mirage by Somaiya Daud
2.0

2.5 Stars!

This book was confusing for me. The writing was well done, for a debut novel I’m impressed with that aspect. However, there was no action until the end of the book and even then it ends really abruptly (just realizing now it’s a series and not a standalone, so this makes sense).

It wasn’t bad by any means, it just felt pointless and could have had some more action considering she’s filling in for the princess who supposedly should be in danger from others (but goes months without a single threat).
I would read from this author again since her writing has a lot of potential, she just has to work on her execution.
