4.0

I picked this up for fantasy in a fictional version of the Mughal Empire in India, not for romance. Yet despite there being dragon-like creatures and politics and the threat of war, the heart of this story is a romance with an almost-unrealistically perfect guy, but it was sweet and satisfying nonetheless. The point of this book seems to be "hey, trans girls, you can be loved," and it was an enjoyable story so I can't really complain. I feel no need to continue the series, though.
