M’agrada que es posi en dubte temes en relació a la monarquia, el sistema de classes, etc. És algo que a vegades es troba a faltar en certs llibres de fantasia.
Com a “negatiu” és que per un llibre tant llarg, la trama dura 3 dies o així. És a dir, tot és molt intens. Pim pam pum.
Quedo amb ganes de llegir la continuació.

There was so much potential here but we spend too long in the main characters' heads, rather than in their world. I don't mind internal dialogue but both MCs' thoughts were repetitive and confusing in the sense that their decision-making skills seemed to be lacking. The prince was so whiny and passive whilst the FMC lacked personality, I wanted to root for them but lost interest by the end of the book. It definitely felt like a huge setup for the next book which seems to be in a completely different setting with more characters introduced. Obviously, a setup is needed to make you pick up the next instalment, but it's always a shame when the first novel itself can't be treated as a standalone in its own right.

The narration was good, but I wish they would’ve cast a male voice actor for Kamran. I just couldn’t get the full effect with the deep, slow voice of a woman.
I love second-half Alizeh who isn’t afraid to speak her mind. When she finally loses her temper, we get a glimpse of who this character was meant to be.
Kamran is a little whiny, but falls head-over-heels for Alizeh in the silliest way. He just can’t seem to keep his eyes off of her, which I think is adorable.
Overall, a solid 4⭐️ book. I’ll will definitely be continuing with the series.
