The Glittering Court by Richelle Mead

3.0

---

It started a little slow, but not so slow that it felt like a slog. Shit gets wild in the last few chapters, though. Overall entertaining, though the worldbuilding relies a little too heavily on re-skinning actual history (particularly the colonial U.S.) and cultures for my tastes. The engaging protagonist was really what kept me hooked; she is smart, bold, and resilient without ever becoming obnoxious or overdone.
