Kingdom of the Wicked by Kerri Maniscalco

3.0

I thought I wrote a review for this book, but turns out I didn’t. Okay, I don’t hate this book, first of all. It’s a solid fantasy, a good book, all the Princes are hot and Emilia is a wonderful main character despite all the tropes she falls into. I love her personality and love for cooking and Wrath’s relationship with her when it comes to handling her emotions. This book just wasn’t THAT interesting, the pacing was weird, the writing style was not formal enough and felt so concise and informal and... bleh. There was something that was slightly boring about this book, despite Nonna and all the side characters. The only mildly entertaining one is Wrath and that’s because we want to know his true motives. So... yeah. That’s pretty much all I have to say about this book because it wasn’t a bad book, but it wasn’t a great one either. I did rate it the same amount of stars as I did one of the books in the Shatter Me trilogy but this one is probably better. I don’t think they can be compared though... not sure but they’re not on the same level definitely.
