Her Radiant Curse is a story about sister love. They're so different in literally everything but none love them as fierce as they do each other.
Infused with witchcraft, curse, magical forest, TIGER AND SNAKES, Her Radiant Curse is highly suitable for anyone liking light fantasy tale. It didn't have that high stakes conflicts or super complicated plot to follow. It's entertaining enough. With sprinkles of romance, this book is an enjoyable standalone.
My 16yo self would definitely love this book.
My two cents:
- I don't particularly loving this book bcs it just didn't standout. However, I didn't have anything particular to hate either. It falls into an okayish story for me. I didn't cheer for the characters, but I don't hate them, too. (I actually prefer when they're able to give me strong emotion to go through the story.)
- A slight problem I encountered is.... How everything made to be a comfortable coincides for Channari to ease her adventure. Everything's just being toned down. It might not be a problem for other readers, but it's just not my favourite.
FAQ:
- IS IT FANTASY BEGINNER FRIENDLY? YES
- IS IT BEGINNER FRIENDLY? I THINK SO!!!
- DO I NEED TO READ THE OTHER BOOKS BEFORE READING THIS ONE? NO NEED!!!! It's a nice standalone fantasy. Actually, this book is a start to Elizabeth Lim universe. Give it a go ✨
