The Unbroken Queen di Terina Adams
Questa recensione è stata scritta per Recensori in anteprima di LibraryThing.I won this book and also received it for reviewing. It kind of reminds me of a Cinderella-type story. It does get a little confusing at the beginning with the back and forth of the characters but if you push through it I think it's worth it. I was definitely more interested in Tressya's chapters than the rest.
Questa recensione è stata scritta per Recensori in anteprima di LibraryThing.The first few chapters felt confusing, like I had been dropped into a strange place. By the end of the book I could not put it down. I am glad the author labeled which characters point of view each chapter was. I am looking forward to the next book in the series because I was left wanting to know more.
Questa recensione è stata scritta per Recensori in anteprima di LibraryThing.Starts out well but bogs down and loses direction in the middle and never recovers the pacing even at the end. Adds in some tedious whining and unnecessarily graphic sex too. Not helped by confusing geography and overly powerful protagonist.
The interesting premise is that of a secret society of women acting as powers behind the throne, managing the dynasty of the ruling classes and trained (unspecified how they manage to fit this in around being princess etc) in many arts. they have strict obedience to their Mother. A neglected daughter is chosen to become bride of distant Prince. She knows nothing of the land or it's culture merely that his bloodline must succeed. It turns out he's a bit of an oaf, but his younger brother is more charming.
Somewhere else in a neighbouring but separated land a Prince is trying to become emperor by uniting the tribes. He's also guided a by different secret society of women, and has a ridiculously mixed heritage apparently granting a wide variety of powers including what initially seems to be limited shapeshifting, but no and then appears to be able to take any form. Sometimes clothes are an issue, and sometimes they're taken for granted. The Prince starts out trying to kill the ruling family of this neighbouring land, to prevent them ascending to the throne granting an unspecified magic power. He can apparently cross the divide without trouble but the rest of his nation can't.
The girl finds herself the centre of attention and spends a lot of time whining about it.
Could have been a lot shorted and more focused and would have been better for it.… (altro)

Questa recensione è stata scritta per Recensori in anteprima di LibraryThing.The Unbroken Queen is the first book in the Bone Throne series. This book tales you on a thrilling journey of magic and adventure. The writing was incredible and creative. It is richly detailed, pulling the reader into this new world and its complicated history, which does make it a bit slow in the beginning. The character was definitely a favorite of mine amongst books. This is the first time I've read a book by this author and will definitely be reading more in the future. I enjoyed this enemies to lovers, fated mates, arranged marriage, shifter slow burn romance.… (altro)
