It's been a while since I've read a YA book but I really enjoyed this one. I pretty much binged it in a day due to a road trip. I did enjoy the storyline, however it did seem slow in a lot of places to me. I was very much against the "love triangle" at first, but I warmed up to it a bit by the end. Hollis as a character is pretty aloof until she needs to act on a problem. I think I'll continue the series because I do have more questions than answers about the future that Hollis has outside of her cushy life at court. I will say that the twists that happened more toward the end threw me, which is why I'll also be continuing the series. It's a fun read for a teen drama set in royal life.
