Oh my god. That plot twist. Scratch that, the plot twists. Wow.

Anyway. This book. This book, right here has a wide array of string female characters. The queen's all have such different personalities and the other, supporting characters that are female are all also wonderful. My personal favourite is Natalia. If you read the books you'll see what I mean.

There was romance in this book, yes. But it wasn't all consuming towards the plot, and that is what I am here for.

And the plot. Well. You can see from my initial reaction that I am impressed with the amount of twists and turns this book took.

I usually read the last page of the book it I am really bored or if I can't seem to figure out where the plot is going. And, boy, am I glad I didn't do that for this book.

I recommend, for anyone who's ready for some magic, plot twists and complicated relationships of all kind.
