Malice by Heather Walter
2.0

Practically DNF — I skimmed this. The plot is predictable and the world building is chunky. My expectations for this book were so high but the romance isn’t even a slow burn tension, both girls are clearly so into each other with no reservations beyond the Romeo/Juliet court issues.
This could be adapted as an excellent web comic. The pacing and info-dumping would be good with maps and visuals. Grand dinners and ballrooms and snide comments. It’s made for graphic panels.
Still. Didn’t like this read.
