Review of 'The false prince' on 'Goodreads'

2 stars

yet another barbie-story for teens, this time disguised as "game of thrones" for kids. it kind of starts quite interestingly, but the more i think of it, the more i feel disgusted. won't even begin enumerating what's wrong with this story, and with the genre in general.
