King Maker by Audrey Grey
5.0
I had an adrenaline rush for like eight hours straight while I read this. I still have chicken skin, don't ask me why, I don't know why. It was just so good. Def my fave book in the series so far. They keep improving and growing in depth and magnitude so I'm so excited for the next one.
The amount of times I key smashed little notes while reading this was crazy. I wish I could just share my book notes so you can see how many times I freaked the frick out about everything. I haven't felt this giddy and strung up about a book since like 2014. I loved this book, I don't care what anyone says, this book made me so happy and feel so alive. AND I WAS RIGHT OK I PICKED THE RIGHT TEAM I CANNOT TELL YOU HOW HAPPY I WAS WHEN IT ALL WENT DOWN. They are so perfect for each other I can't handle it.
This felt like the HP Goblet of Fire and SJM Empire of Storms. We get the thrill of a tournament and we are at the precipice of a great turning point on all fronts: romance, friendship, identity, and the world. I love this so much. I know I said that already but I really had the best time reading this.
And the plot. My goodness, the first book I was like "okay yeah we have to break a deadly curse that's been plaguing the world for centuries." That's a solid plot. We like that plot. That's a good, big, meaningful plot. Then we just go absolutely crazy and now we gotta fight the devil himself. The plot, she thiccc. I love world-shattering revelations and characters. Audrey delivers. That is all I'm gonna say bout that!
The scene at the party with Stolas, Haven, and Archeron. That triggered my fight or flight so bad, I hate those awkward situations but I love them. The tension *chef's kiss* the angst *chef's kiss* That whole scene fed all my enemies to lovers, love triangle, angsty desires.
This really is one of the best enemies to lovers, slow burn, angsty but not annoying, tension-filled books I have read in a long time. And we have the best little team of strong people with lovely friendship and a powerful, damaged but beautiful couple. I love it hereeeee.
