Didn't really care about or believe the romance in this, but all the family dynamics were really engaging. I enjoyed her interactions with Azaria way more than with Pyrrhus tbh.

Really, really enjoyed this one! Hunger Games is comped a lot but this is the closest I have come to a HG-esque political commentary. I thought the relationships: political, familial, romantic were all very well rendered and interesting! Super eager for the next in the series.
