nikkitheninth 's review for:
The Princess Knight
by Cait Jacobs
adventurous
mysterious
medium-paced
While "medieval fantasy legally blonde" is an apt descriptor, it does fall short of a tall order w that comp.
This definitely read more as a YA fantasy while I was expecting a bit more adult going into it, but on the plus side, there's a lot of LGBTQ rep (queer world, main MC's are queer, non-binary side character). There was a good amount of creativity with inspiration from Celtic origin.
I really wanted to love this, but I just found that the writing and the characters didn't really draw me in the way I would've liked and hearing a comparison like legally blonde makes me expect a high level of comedy, which was not in this. The romance unfortunately fell a bit flat for me because I just expected more buildup and again, I just wasn't wowed by the characters.
Overall, it was just an OK read for me but a solid debut nonetheless.
