i enjoyed this but i did find some of the behaviour of the characters to be juvenile. there was a point where the mfc came up with an idea and the men were like “omg shes soooo smart with politics literally queen material” and i was like really? i hate that! i hate when the plan characters come up with is so simple a kid could come up with it.

the mfc does this thing where she acts tough and want to be involved in the politics and fighting and do what? you have no powers and your going to die. i wish the author made her more cunning. there is power in holding your tongue bidding your time and planning. she was so loud! it was good when she stood up herself. it just wasn’t needed all the time.

the romance is… something! i’m not a fan of dub con/non con but bec i knew what i was getting into i was prepared for it. in the future books though i need loads of grovelling. there was literally one decent guy. 

the world building is okay. i wish we were given more though.
