Read for Indie Ink 2024 judging for the category of Disability Representation by a Disabled author.
Really appreciated the realistic framing of the protagonist as having processing issues, executive functioning issues, and the purported solution to them in the world of the novel. Interesting world building, and author effectively brings readers into the world they’ve created.
At times hilariously funny, dark, and plot line of political intrigue/pending civil war between the four royal siblings after the death of their father.
Rating of novel here is per my personal taste and does not reflect how I scored the novel for the Indie Ink Awards.
