A review by ailurophile_bibliophile89
The Rebel Princess by Judith Koll Healey
2.0
I enjoyed this but I'm a bit disappointed with the ending. It just cuts off. Of course, everything ended up getting resolved that really needed to be resolved but I didn't feel satisfied.
Also, the there was a lot of build-up but once the actual "adventure" started it felt very rushed.
Not a bad story (though there's quite a lot of liberties taken with the historical content I feel like but I hadn't read the first novel so I may be missing information) but there could be more focus on the character development (even with the characters newly introduced that I'm assuming weren't mentioned in the first book), the plot details and the flow. The writing itself wasn't terrible but it was very juvenile compared to what I had expected.
As I said, I did enjoy the book but I'm giving it two stars for the reasons above.
