A Beggar's Kingdom by Paullina Simons

3.0

The Tiger Catcher was a 3/5 and this one is a 3.5/5.
The story definitely picks up in this book. I was able to watch the love grow more, and become more connected with their love, especially with Mirabelle. I really do still love Paullina Simons. She doesn't just give life to characters but she gives life to the setting as well.

I do love the back and forth between the centuries. I also really love Julian. He's had considerable character development already and I LOVE it. The only thing holding it back is that it picked up halfway through the book. Only halfway did I really start becoming intrigued. I feel as though if Paullina dragged it on a bit more, allowed more time for each of the girls, I would have felt that connection to the characters sooner.

Ava and Devi together is a duo I never realized I wanted, which I also loved.
