Lovisa is gay for Nev. Unfortunately not as good as the other Graceling realm books, however Giddon and Hava are great in this one.

1.0

Argh, despite the weird beginning, this book had so much potential. The plot and action was solid, but the story was ruined by constant sexual references and exploits. Seriously, a 16 year old seducing boys to spy on her parents?! Forcing her best friend to sleep with her rather than discuss what’s going on?! It was completely unnecessary and destroyed what would have been a great book.

This is a strange series with every turn. I liked the politics here, but didn’t find the fantasy elements as strong. The sex was overkill.

Drowning. Slut shaming. Starvation. Relationship between characters who are currently both adults, but almost definitely met when one was around 10 and the other was an older teenager/adult.
