The Gilded Crown by Marianne Gordon
2.0
I was so so lucky to win this in one of the Goodreads giveaways!
There is no hate in this just my honest thoughts and opinions.
I absolutely love the idea and concept of this book and that’s why I didn’t DNF it. Getting into it was hard, but it did pick up and get easier to read. I think the execution just wasn’t it though. I don’t know the best terminology, but it didn’t feel like the whole story flowed together. That’s why I rated it so low. I feel like this concept had HUGE potential!! And the follow through wasn’t there.
I was so excited and had big hopes about the love interest, but I hated almost every interaction they had. I don’t get how our MC has these feelings for the love interest. It’s so toxic/abusive and made me angry every time they came up.
I think if it was re written I’d buy it and read it, but I don’t think I’ll buy the second one. However if I won book 2 too, I definitely would, because that feels right, and I’d be curious how book 2 goes.
