mzdeb 's review for:

The Cursed Crown by Alexi Blake, May Sage

2.0

---

This what I get for not writing a review for a few weeks--all I remember is, despite interesting world-building, there was pretty good sexual tension that completely stalled, and then the author, by 98 percent of the book in, must've realized "oh, right, time to fire off that sexual tension gun I set up on the table in the first quarter of the book." Finally the main characters had a sex scene, but by that point I was like, "whatever." And then the most rushed of epilogues where, again, "meh." This is a standalone but there's a second book planned? I'll pass for now.
