Secondborn by Amy A. Bartol

4.0

**Reading this the second time (after reading Traitor Born), I’ve decided to give it 4 stars. I like the characters and the political aspects of the story. I also love the Reykin storyline but remember it being bigger the first time around. There is obviously a lot of world building because it’s a dystopian novel, but the world is fascinating. It really feels like old England with aristocracy and inheritance being to the eldest child. There are also people who can’t move beyond their class or caste, it’s really fascinating. **

I would give this 3.5 stars only because I fee like it took a long time to get started. Once it picked up, it was definitely enjoyable and I will read the next one, I just wish it didn't have such a slow start.
