Freedom and Fire by Courtney Thorne

emotional tense slow-paced

4.0

This book picks up with our rapunzel-like princess learning about her kingdom that she has been locked away from and really learning about herself. I was ready for her to be observant and a little more self assured but she was stuck in her head and working through a lot of changes at once. It was fun to see more of the different kingdoms and my theory from book one came true! I loved seeing those relationships form and development. The last third of the book felt a little rushed/underdeveloped and is where my four star rating came from. I think we could have had more conversation and relationship development in Spirit kingdom and maybe the plot twists at the end wouldn’t have felt as rushed. I think with more time to develop my attachment to these characters the ending would have been more impactful. Overall I love the storyline still and can’t wait to see how the author wraps up this story on book three.
