Synopsis: Torn between two worlds, which will she embrace?
Elodie Harper is heir to the magical kingdom of Aluna. Trapped by an evil wizard in an illusion; Elodie grows up caught between two worlds, one of magic, and one of technology.
As the facade of her mundane life of lies and fake smiles cracks, her kingdom crumbles in the absence of its ruler. Join Elodie as she navigates both lives not knowing which to embrace, and which to push into the back of her mind and forget as a bad dream.
Review: This was a pretty good book! The plot was intriguing and it kept me interested in the book throughout it. The world building was well done and I loved the characters and how developed they were.
However, the book is really slow, especially in the beginning, and the book is kinda weird in that it reads like an adult novel, but feels like a book for younger audiences.
Verdict: It’s really good!
