A Crown of Wishes by Roshani Chokshi
3.0
I had no idea going in that this book did not follow the main characters from the first book and that had me a little disappointed; although the idea of having a competition to gain a wish intrigued me.
While this book had so many amazing aspects I could not shake the disconnect I had with the writing style. The mystical type of writing is not my favorite it lets the reader interpret the meaning and themes of the books a bit too much and for some, that is great, it just isn't for me.
The characters and world building, however, a amazing! The Indian mythology is so interesting to read about even though it is hard to pick out and relate to since I did not grow up learning about it. I loved the romance between Vikram and Gauri they are a powerful and magical match and I love them!
