emvdw 's review for:

Her Majesty's Royal Coven by Juno Dawson
5.0
adventurous emotional relaxing medium-paced
Plot or Character Driven: Plot
Strong character development: Yes
Loveable characters: Yes
Diverse cast of characters: Yes
Flaws of characters a main focus: No

Still kind of reeling from the cliffhanger tbh. Can't believe Dawson did that to me. 

I really loved this! It's not perfect, but my enjoyment of it was! 

I called Theo's Secret the moment it's mentioned that warlocks aren't usually adepts. Of course, the characters don't know they're living in a novel involving gender based magic in the year of our lord 2022 so can be forgiven for missing the Trans element. The transfobia was sad and I would think Helena's reaction was a but over the top, had I not seen JKR (the Mundane High Priestess of TERFery in the UK) burn her world down on this very issue...


Truly majestic narration by Nicola Coughlan.
