The Veiled Kingdom by Holly Renee
slow-paced
3.0
First off, let me say the spice scenes saved this book - otherwise it’d be a solid 2. Felt kinda like a rip off Throne of Glass combined with Powerless but not as well written 🤷♀️
Holly Renee doesn’t seem to be the best at world building or descriptive writing in general, unless it’s smut apparently - because that was 10/10 🌶️🥵. But many things were unclear in the story (the magic, the world building etc.).
Even so, I will read the sequel as the ending hooked me a bit. Hopefully the main character gets a bit more interesting in the next book.
