A Kingdom of Flame and Fury by Whitney Dean

5.0

At 10 years old Raven became the queen of Seolia. For 15 years she has ruled, but she has also kept a secret, she possesses magic. A mysterious stranger starts spreading rumors about her magic and she must figure out who, why, and if those in her kingdom will still accept her with her magic. As she starts learning more about her past, and her secrets start coming out, her kingdom, and her life, will be changed forever.

I can't put this book down and that's horrible because it's THICK, so I have stayed up way too late to read this and I can't wait for the next book. 

There's some serious spice, but it's done in a way that doesn't take away from the overall plot, which I like. 

The world-building is well done. We learn a little about the world and each of the kingdoms throughout the book. There's enough information at the beginning that you understand what's happening, but not so much that you are confused or the book is too slow to start. 

The characters are well-developed and I find myself invested in Raven and wanting the best for her. 

The twists keep coming and I never see them coming. I love that I can't figure out what's happening or who I can and can't trust, it's what keeps me reading. 

I can't wait to read the next book.
