The Queen of Ieflaria by Effie Calvin

2.0

I really, really wanted to love this book. The concept was super interesting and wonderful, but the execution just wasn’t there for me. I didn’t really click with the characters and the characters didn’t seem to click with each other. Some of the conversations felt stilted somehow. Like I understand that it’s fantasy, but I just kept thinking, “people don’t talk like that.” Sometimes it works and sometimes it doesn’t.
Again, love the concept. Didn’t like the execution.
