I unfortunately DNF’d this one pretty quick… as someone from Scotland the premise of this book was really exciting but I unfortunately just couldn’t get into it and it didn’t really work for me the way I was hoping it would

The content warnings are useful but as the content of the book contains murder and gore alongside emotional manipulation and abuse, I do not think it is accurate for this book to be in the YA section of NetGalley

Thank you to Sourcebooks and NetGalley for the ARC!

I was excited to see this title available as Read Now - I read Sara and Beth's last YA witchy duo, and I had a fun time with it. The premise for The Crimsons Throne sounds perfect for fantasy romance readers, and I was intrigued by the Outlander comparison.

I DNF'd this one very quickly as it became apparent that the writing style leans heavily into YA, and it's not what I'm currently looking for. I'm above the target audience age, and I don't think this book is for me.

However, I think teen readers are going to eat this up! The opening scene throws you right into the action, so be sure to add this to your TBR if that is your cup of tea!
