A Kingdom of Bitter Magic by Alaya Wells
4.0
adventurous dark emotional tense medium-paced

I was immediately sucked into this one! The world was established pretty quick and focused on the relationships majority of the time. There are so many secrets that I can't wait get unravelled through the rest of the series! I'm honestly a little stressed about what Tempest is going to do when everything starts coming to light 😅

Vexxion and Tempest are in for it 😮‍💨 Both of them are reluctant to trust, which I totally get, but I also feel like a lot of what's going to happen could be fixed by opening up just a tiiiiiny little bit 🤏🏻

So much fucking heartbreak happened already and I'm not sure if I can take anymore in the next book! I cried my eyes out. I knew it was coming-it's in the blurb-but it doesn't make it ANY less devastating 😭
