I couldn’t put it down. As a young adult myself I really enjoyed this book. The characters were relatable and well thought out. I personally could relate to Shadow. Just wanting to follow her own path and take after her idols. The world she built was so cool, I wish I could go. The history, fables, and attire intrigued me and want to know more about them from all the other kingdoms as well. This book had predictable parts, sure, but it also had some plot twist that I didn’t expect. Totally recommend if you’re looking for a rebellious action/romance YA novel.

The Queens Assassin. I really liked this book, though the romance was a little disappointing. It had a really good plot and writing so I would recommend it to anybody who likes young adult fiction.

it was alright. The beginning was kinda slow, but like the whole time the story is building up this plot where you think some serious ish is going to go down...but then it doesn’t. The ending is what really disappointed me. I truly think she did Cal dirty, but that’s just my opinion so go find out for yourself;)

I really did try to like this. Melissa De La Cruz and I just aren’t good friends. Genuinely shook that I finished this because this was A LOT. I tried so many times to crack it open and read it. I finished it about a week ago, and it rolled my eyes throughout the entire time, and tried my best to reread it today before writing my review. But I made it halfway and dnfed the reread. Wins: -yes. Wins... okay. The world building. It was a good world. It wasn’t my favorite. I kind of get over the modern day/ magical/ historic esque novels. It was a good world. It wasn’t great. -the characters. Individually I liked Shadow and Cal. They were cute characters. -the plot. It wasn’t anything big or out there, I did like it. Opportunities -insta love. Insta love, we meet again, that’s 2 books in 2 weeks that I read ( I guess 3 if we’re counting the reread). I’m over it, enough is enough. Enough said. -the writing style. Man was that a CHOICE. Shadows pov was in first person, and Cals was in third person. I don’t even know how to explain where, I don’t understand it, but yeah, that was a choice. -the fact that shadow is somehow this bad a character who can cast spells, who can fight and wield a sword... okay. Yeah. Sure. -another hit on the writing style: it felt very juvenile. Shadow randomly talking to the squirrel. The characters thoughts. The fact that Cal was like “wouldn’t want to cut your cute face off and I guess yours is okay too” (that isn’t a direct quote, but it’s pretty close) and Shadow is happy about that. Alright. No, I would probably be mad at my boy for a good few hours after a comment like that. So yeah, me and Melissa De La Cruz are officially breaking up. I didn’t want to sit here and slam her book because I know how much work goes into it, but this was a struggle for me. I wanted so badly to like it, I had high hopes; but it genuinely felt like something a very young teenager had written. Young adult very rarely reads like that to me, and I almost never like it when it goes. Sorry to be so negative on this review, but this wasn’t anywhere near my expectations. Also: can we stop with the insta love and the out of nowhere insanely good at everything female characters?
