#Right after the one by kiera cass free
This year, I was looking for books to read, and this was free on my kindle. Well, hopefully, the second book won’t be very disappointing.I read this last year, and I thought it was good, at the time.
I enjoyed reading this book in some way, but I expected a little bit more after waiting so many years for a new book from Kiera Cass. I’m curious how it will continue but it doesn’t intrigue me as much as I thought it will. I felt a little bit that it was unnecessary and done only to be able to continue it with the second book. I don’t want to spoil too much to you, but it was surprising how the book ended. Knowing the ending, I’m very glad I didn’t. Silas is a sweet character however, I didn’t feel very attached to him. She should know what she was putting herself into before she was accepting the king’s affections. On one side, she is a very smart and carrying girl but on the other, I just wanted to scream at her to decide what she wants. I still don’t know what to think about her. This was the moment I started to understand her more but also, she started to annoy me a little. She realizes that her dream of becoming a queen won’t be a fairy tale she dreamed about. She has her confusing thoughts about how she feels around Silas and Jameson. I knew it’s going to happen but when it did, I still felt that I like Jameson more than him, and even if he had his moments where he snapped on Hollis, it doesn’t mean he’s a bad guy.įrom this time Hollis is going through a lot of challenges, for which she wasn’t ready yet.
