A review by madsmacmath
American King by Sierra Simone

lighthearted mysterious medium-paced

• Plot- or character-driven? A mix
• Strong character development? It's complicated
• Loveable characters? Yes
• Diverse cast of characters? No
• Flaws of characters a main focus? It's complicated

2.0

I love that Sierra Simone books aren’t fade-to-black, slow burn, two scenes scenes-kind of books. They’re here for a good time. I’ve liked the series but this one had a little too much politics (do we care about the “Carpathian war?”) for a fully good time. But if you’re deeply invested in the characters, it is a satisfying end - in more ways than one.
