Throne of the Fallen (Prince of Sin)

It had so much potential… but in the end it fizzled out…

3.5 ⭐️
Too much

I really enjoyed this book. Kerri Maniscalco has some YA books within this universe, but this is definitely not one of them. There is a decent about of spice in the book. If you're newer to smut, but looking to amp things up a bit, this is for you. Maybe good for all the A Court of Silver Flames girlies who want more books with that level of spice. Realistically, it's probably more of a 3.5 to 4 star read, but I must have read this at the exact right time in my life because I loooooooved it. Spice: 🌶️ 🌶️ to 🌶️ 🌶️ 🌶️ The good: - I really liked the MMC and The MFC. I thought they were well written and relatively well-developed. I enjoyed the yearning, and the spicy scenes, but I also really enjoyed the dynamic between the characters outside of those scenes. By the end of the book, I could see why they were together and it was believeable. - I really enjoyed the plot. The plot itself is YA-esque, in that two people go on little mini magic adventures to get the clues they need to solve a bigger problem. There is enough smut in this book to remind you that it is definitely not YA though. - There is a plot twist. It becomes predictable part of the way through the story, but it's intentional because the author leaves little bread crumbs about. - I liked the writing style. It's not the most amazing writing in the world, but it was much better than many other books I've read. I was hooked from the start and wasn't bored reading it. There weren't any contininuity errors that I could point out, which I like. - I like the interaction between the MMC and his brothers. The bad - It ended - I'm sure there were things I didn't like about it, but nothing comes to mind which is odd because I'm a critical person :p

This book was one of my favorites. The plot twist was amazing, you think you know what’s coming but you really don’t. I wish it was more enemies to lovers, I felt like it was more forced friendship to lovers. And I loved the journey they had to go on. Kinda reminds me of a Sarah J. Maas book.

I really enjoyed this one, powered through it. It reminded me of Jane Austin meets fantasy Fae and Demons. Writing was definitely better than other books we have read, lol. Did anyone else steam over Wolf?! Anywho, was disappointed on the premise of the sequel... just didn't seem appealing enough to continue. Mainly I read the reviews the MFC is weak... but there was dragons which is cool.
