Absolutely love this book. Compared to Twisted Love, safe to say I most definitely love Twisted Games more!!! 
The beginning of the book may have started off a little slow but the events and pov changes entices and attracts you into the story. The plot was decently planned and flows well. 
The writing is easy flowing and simple to understand. It hits you in the feels. However, I personally get my feelings turned off when I see a cuss word unnecessarily in a sentence. Despite that, I still think this book is well-written for young adults to easily comprehend. 
I teared up and almost cried reading for the first time during the last two chapters before the epilogue. This book made me believe in love again. 🥰

RHYS LARSEN. I LOVE YOU SO MUCH. 😭 He’s not only a secret romantic but also a secret cinnamon roll!!! 🥺
BRIDGET VON ASCHEBERG. CHARACTER DEVELOPMENT!!!!! 💳💥 So proud of our Princess 🫶 from being scared and insecure, going through so much all at once, she pulled through and became the best version of herself. Highly respected, OUR QUEEN 🩷

Overall, this book was nice to read. It may feel draggy in the beginning, but the suspense when you reach the second half of Part 2, bless me. 
THERE ARE SPECIFIC CHAPTERS I WOULD MOST DEFINITELY READ AGAIN JUST TO FEED INTO MY DELULU AND BELIEVE IN LOVE ALL OVER AGAIN. 🩷✨

Forbidden lovers. It took awhile for the spice to develop but once it did, it was pretty good. I liked this book but I knew where it was going from about page 100. The ending, while predictable, did make me happy.

The book was just bland. The Royal politics was boring. Not every royal romance is Queen Charlotte, right? Also Rhys and Bridget,they have less personality than than brick wall. Rhys is 20 times more possessive and frustrating than Alex. He was like do this,don't do this. And Girl always surrendered to her.
Ava was interesting to read about but here Bridget had one: I am not like other girls. She never acted like a queen but like lovesick kitten. 
Also,the writing lack liveliness. Miss Ana told more than showing. And for God's sake,where was the romance? It was fucking,either in thoughts or in action. Give me a reason why Bridget fall for Rhys. Oh,I think I know. It is stockholm syndrome. 
The only reason I gave it two stars because of Andreas. He is funny and I demand a book for him. 
I have hope for the third book. Jules is only one in the friends group who seems to have a personality. Let's see.
