Ah this really hit the spot. Read it in one day and it just solidly delivered what I was hoping for. Easy to read YA, rom-com still covering serious things but with a light touch, well-written characters that aren't one-dimensional, Camelot vibes plus everyone is gay. Iconic. Honestly I was a bit confused by the world-building but that may be on me for having read it so quickly. Anyway, would solidly recommend, especially for anyone wanting an easy pick-me-up or getting back into reading.

This is everything I needed in a story! It’s all about love, friendship and unexpectedly a little bit of kingdom politics. The characters are so real and my heart goes out to the main six 🥰 the writing is heart warming, tear jerking, while also being laugh out loud funny in different moments.

🥰 It’s a story of a princess betrothed to a boy , but the boy likes her brother, and the princess likes the only lady knight in the kingdom. 🏳️‍🌈 🧡🩷 💚💙

I really enjoyed this book! A good balance of humor and angst. I really wish we got to explore more of Arthur’s mental health, because it was clear he suffered through severe emotional abuse to the point of suicidal thoughts. The ending felt a bit rushed to me, too. I wish we got an emotional post-battle conversation between Gabe and Arthur, because they clearly still had a lot of stuff to talk through in order to pursue any kind of relationship. I also wish we got to know Bridget’s backstory a bit more! But, overall, I loved the dynamics between these characters—they were witty and lovable. Personally, I think this book would have been more suitable as a New Adult novel, but I still enjoyed it as a YA novel.
