This was obvious massively setting up for a series. Not totally sold on the romance element of it yet, but hopefully I start to feel more of a connection that is undoubtedly always my favourite part. I will say that I genuinly feel like I need to read the next book at least just to find out what happens in the politics part of the book. I do think that the world building and the plot of this book seems well thought out and I can see little hints peppered throughout the book of what’s to come. It does a good job of keeping you guessing and wondering, so I look forward to the next book which I’m going to start rn. :)
