Crown Duel by Sherwood Smith
4.0

So glad I finally got to this! Onto the next book!

The writing is just so beautiful and descriptive and very reminiscent of old fantasy and I loved it! My only complaint is that I wish there was a map cause I got a bit confused about where things were, which annoyed me.

I love Bran and Mel’s relationship! The way they cared for each other was so sweet and adorable!

Vidanric...lol his pale blonde hair reminded me of Draco Malfoy for some reason, and the way he was always trying to hide his amusement got to me and I just loved him! I honestly wish there was a book through his perspective while he was at court planning everything.

I didn’t mind kind of the abrupt battle at the end. We didn’t see most of the fighting, but I felt it was more realistic than seeing a girl who barely knows how to fight beating off the bad guys like a pro. I’m pretty excited to see what happens next at court since I love that stuff so much!
