“Mark my words, Prince, I will be your undoing.” I lean in, ignoring the knife against my throat as I murmur, “Oh, darling, I look forward to it” - Lauren Robert’s 🪡
⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️ 4 Stars
If you know me, you know I’m a character driven reader.The characters in Powerless were 👌🏻 spot on. I love vicious Pae, her cut throat dagger and her not so ordinary story 💪🏻
I’m aware I didn’t need another dark love interest, but what can I say 🤷🏻♀️ I loved Kai. Their banter was top tier, I was speed reading through their scenes. 👀
The hunger games-eque trials weren’t as copy cat as other reviewers have made out. I think the issue is, they weren’t as interesting 😬 Considering they contained the majority of the action and murders…the middle section did get pretty slow at times. 💀
Strong opening, loveable characters, lots of tension, cool powers - also I ate that ending up! Can’t wait for the next book 💥
