3.5
In a nutshell - I like the plot, I like the scheming, I love the side characters (Madinia is my queen), but I don't like the FMC and the MMC. Their POVs had me speed-reading, especially the spice.
One question I have - why is the queen's POV just labelled "The Queen"? Why isn't her name used like everyone else? Is this some sort of foreshadowing or just an odd choice?
The cliffhanger was intense, as expected! I did enjoy the sea battle, that was a nice change of sea-nery (YES I DID THAT).
