Castles in their Bones by Laura Sebastian
4.0
I think it was a 3.5 rounded up. This is a hard book to rate.
This was read in the DTReadAlong book club! Feel free to join us for the discussion in June!!
There’s a LOT going on here. We have POVs of all three sisters in their separate countries all filled with their own courts, friends, and enemies. It’s A LOT to remember for characters, places, and families. Luckily there’s a map and an ancestry map in the beginning. That helped me a lot.
This book is just full of court politics and betrayal that’s on par with Game of Thrones. Thankfully without the incest and violence. It’s hard for us to trust anyone the girls meet, and towards the end, the girls themselves. That last chapter turned the whole thing on its head and I’m eagerly awaiting book 2!
But it was a lot to juggle. There’s too many people, too many plots, too much. I’m hoping things will come together in book 2 and be easier to follow.
