I’m sorry but this was so dreadfully boring. It wasn’t even that the book was bad persé, it’s just that it literally bored me to tears.

Nothing about this relationship managed to capture my interest. They had no chemistry or tension, and none of their interactions were particularly fun to read. It was insta-love to the highest degree, and nothing interesting happened between them.
Thus, despite the intriguing promise of a romance between a king and his stable boy, I did not care for these two at all.

I also wasn’t a big fan of the writing, because even though this is a moderately short book, it felt incredibly long. I couldn’t help but skim over half of it since most of the scenes were just completely irrelevant to the story and were unnecessarily dragged out.
