lambsbooks 's review for:
Powerless
by Lauren Roberts
"I don't know that I ever lived before laying eyes on the likes of you."
4.25 stars
I manage to give him a groggy grin before asking, "Are you going to sleep?"
"Oh, darling, I'm already dreaming."
Oh, this was fun.
"I never wanted this. Never wanted to be what I am today. But monsters are made, not born. And I had no choice in the matter. I have no choice in the matter. But I won't deny what I am, and I'll do what I must for my kingdom. For my king."
The Ordinaries and Elites. The royals and the "peasants." The struggles and injustices. The main characters, the trials, the magic, the SLOW-BURN TENSION that I am so looking forward to in the next book (especially with that cliffhanger!!)! This was super great.
And yet, he failed to mention how he'd hit her. Perhaps I'll relieve him of one of his hands, so he never has the opportunity to lay it on a woman again.
"I spoke with him, yes," I say quietly. "Though it seems we may be having another conversation in the near future."

Thank you so so much to Simon Schuster Canada and the author for sending me a physical ARC in exchange for an honest review!
She is a vision, a nightmare, a dream. A grim reaper clad in black, come to steal my soul and my heart. I've never seen something so beautiful, so bold, so blatantly wrong for me. She is a devil. She is a deity. She is a man's downfall in human form. She is my downfall.
