Ash Princess by Laura Sebastian

dark

3.0

A YA fantasy that focuses on treason, espionage, rebellion and strength. The FMC also has two male characters after her affection: one who is an enemy while the other is a childhood best friend.

As a queen who has been stripped of her entire life and title, she is made a mockery of by the King and beaten for any wrongdoing of the people of her country do.

The FMC is fairly easy to like as a character but in typical teenager fashion, she can also be infuriating for some of the choices she makes. She is in constant conflict with herself, brought on by the trauma she has witnessed or been personally subjected to for most of her life.

Overall, a solid read and a good start to this trilogy. I will be giving book 2 a shot sometime in the future.
