Wow!!! That was so fun! That was SO FUN! What a blast! The magic, the political intrigue, the long lost twin, the surprise, the emotion! Wow this was great! I will say there really wasn’t any diversity in this book at all so for that I’m dropping it half a star but the plot was fun and the characters were really well fleshed out and I loved the two narrators for the different princesses!

This was fun to read, with likeable characters and quite an predictable yet enjoyable plot. I recommend it to fans of the Lunar Chronicles as it has a similar style, and The Priory of the Orange Tree for the theme of re-examining history (and another queer-normative world!). The clichés and unoriginality made for quite a relaxing read, although I wasn't always a fan of the romance (why did the characters' attraction to each other make them forget everything important and throw caution to the wind?) – I suspect that's a case of me no longer being in the target age range, however :)

I really enjoyed this book !

The first half was a bit slow but i’d say necessary? And then everything fell back in place in the 2nd half of the story.

2 love relationships, very different from each other. I loved both !

And the few end chapters wrecked me !

The separation between Wren and Tor was heartbreaking. And Elske running to save her but abandoning her master 😭

A great reading !
