Review of 'Beguilement (The Sharing Knife, Book 1)' on 'Goodreads'
3 stars
I nearly gave it four stars, I did after all devour it in just four days, but from the very start it felt a bit too simple and easy. Yes there are problems and issues and dangers and ... and it's all very well written, but what I think would have been the biggest issues are ignored or barely touched upon. I'm not going to harp on about it though. The world building seems to be excellent and the story is good, so if you're looking for simple and easy romance in a unique fantasy setting then go right ahead.
not trope-free, mind you, but it's completely it's own thing.
