This has the second book fatigue for sure. A lot of it is setting up book three. A lot of it is much more political than the first by leagues so if you truly couldn’t stand it in the first one I don’t think you’ll like it considering… its keeping the power of the kingdom is top priority for the protagonist.
That aside, this book has a lot of little moments I really love. It has a ton of flirty which yeah we all knew it was going to get there. It’s still heavy on the I’m stabbing you in the near future just you wait but now there’s a little smile to it.
It makes you hate everyone you despise even more and makes you have warm fuzzies for all the ones you loved to hate. It’s more of the castle which is love. Any of the scenes set in the castle are just absolutely brilliant pieces of art.
I really loved this and only had the first two. (My very proper Christian grandmother purchased the first two for reasons only god knows) So… my first trip to the library in a decade and a half to get the third and..: They didn’t have it. So… I read a couple other books first.
