somenoveltea 's review for:
This Vicious Dream
by Stacia Stark
firstly, i started this way back when i got the ARC, but quickly decided that i wanted to read kingdom of lies first because of the references to events in the quartet. I'm definitely glad that i did pause and wait until now - even though you technically "could" read this without reading kingdom of lies, a lot of the dynamics / references would make 0 sense.
as for the book, it reads quite similarly to the kingdom of lies quartet in that it's a good time, but not necessarily a MUST read. it's a fun romantasy, and im glad that we get a series about madinia specifically because she was by far the most compelling side character in the og series. however, it definitely is a bit formulaic.
overall, fun times, and i definitely want to read book 2 with what was set up here!
**thank you to The Nerd Fam and Stacia Stark for the ARC copy**
