I received this as part of my FairyLoot subscription.
"Faebound" follows two sisters as they are forced to interact with the fae court. Yeeran is a fierce warrior in the elven army, but she makes a mistake and is forcibly exiled from her homeland. Lettle is trying to become a diviner and use her prophecies to create a better future. Yeeran and Lettle have always had each other's backs, but their interactions with the fae are causing them to question where their loyalties should lie.
I had a fine time reading this book, but it felt unmemorable to me. I enjoyed it while I was reading it, but I have not found myself thinking about it since I have finished, nor do I really desire to continue with the trilogy. I think this book is written well and definitely has an audience, but that audience is not me.
