The Jasad Heir by Sara Hashem

DNF at 30%. Trained royalty hiding in a different country/state/village under a different name and she has to go through trials to become the kingdoms champion in exchange for her freedom? That is literally the plot of Throne of Glass, but with an Egyptian twist. Everything I've read so far just feels like the same recycled story line we get over and over in fantasy and I'm just not capable of reading for tropes alone, I need something more. Love the Egyptian motifs and lore, but overall just feels unoriginal.
