It was okay, I wasn’t the biggest fan of the woman narrator bc she sounds a lot older than the character is supposed to be & just didn’t mesh for me. Plus the plot was just kind of sub par for me as well. We spent the whole time in the castle and I just got bored waiting for the king to be overthrown and then I guess I expected even that to be slightly more exciting. The author also used a lot of repetitive phrases which got old. I wanted to like this one, but I just didn’t really. Still continuing with the series though.
