The Glittering Court
by Richelle Mead
I received an e-Arc of this book from Edelweiss.
I loved Adelaide's character. She is a privileged countess down on her financial luck who just wants some time to feel normal. She is bold, relatable, and endearing. I loved the idea of the glitz and glam allure of the glittering court for girls who may have never had the chance otherwise. The story is well written and Richelle Mead does a really good job with character development. I was supremely drawn to the story and found myself eager to keep reading. About three quarters of the way through, I found myself just a teeny bit bit bored for a small portion, but once I got over that little hump the story actually picked up again. All in all, it was a book that kept my interest. It did leave me wanting a little more from the other two characters (Tamsin and Mira), which makes me definitely want to pick up the second book when it comes out. I hope Mead gives us a story with more about these two strong female supporting characters.
