Crystal Crowned by Elise Kova
3.0
BOOK FIVE SPECIFIC
This was my least favorite installment of the series, the plot dragged a bit and the relationship dynamics it explored felt like a retread of the previous books, but my love for the characters kept me reading to the end. Ultimately I think this would have worked better as a trilogy or 4-book series.
SERIES OVERVIEW
A girl with magical powers! A dark prince! Romantic angst! I love all of these tropes. As a result I’ve read MANY iterations of them over the past 10+ years. So when I encounter a series that makes me excited about them again, that’s something special. While book two was my personal favorite I could agree with almost any rating of the individual books, but the reading *experience* was 5 stars for me.
