Okay, this was not BAD but it wasn't as good as Heir. This review is going to serve as some overall thoughts for the trio/book as a whole.
I think Heir had the strongest plot and driving force behind it. Though it's technically the middle of the story, it didn't sag like Queen seemed to have trouble with. I found myself skimming paragraphs because there was just the same information repeated constantly. At one point I was like, damn Mina we know you're pregnant, tired, and confused let's have some actual plot.
I'm actually very interested to see how Katee Robert blends all three of these novellas into a book. I think they'll serve as a far better reading experience not split up and bogged down by recaps every five pages.
Overall, not a bad series/boom. I laughed out loud so much at the snarky commentary and I'm genuinely excited to check out the monster series just for some Azazel content. Overall 4/5 for all three, read these if you want a fun, brainless activity.

Content Warnings
Graphic: Blood, Pregnancy, Sexual content, and Death
Pregnancy is featured HEAVILY in this one. But you don't experience the main character having the baby, only the side effects that come with magical pregnancy. Sexual content, blood, biting - all in this. It gets gory.booksofautumn's review
