Then sure. And the author does bring up quite a mini twist at the end, which I found wrapped this historical fantasy quite good. It holds your attention, the MC is quite fun at times, there is some drama and the few action scenes are ones to look forward to. It was neither utterly amazing, nor terribly awful. It held it while I read, but I could close it to easily. I just thought that it could have used more excitement, more risk and more twists to make this something that really grabbed at my attention.

And yet I need him in the story to add in some interest. You can hold it for a while, but then it slowly slips away leaving just a wet feeling that lasts only until it dries. He had some substance but it was more like water. The love interest was really–in my opinion–bland. None of the other characters really stood out to me. She is one who looks for loopholes to get out of the world until she finally becomes a willing part of it. She comes from a lowly background which is much unappreciated by her new peers. She was headstrong and yet afraid of the new world she was thrust into. *My gratitude goes out to Thomas Allen & Son for providing me with a copy for review!* What I Liked: Struggling to harness her incredible strength, speed, and agility, and despised by her classmates, all she wants is to use her new position to find a cure so she can be normal and reunited with her brother.īut with the Golden Jubilee fast approaching and the discovery that there’s a traitor in their midst, she has no choice but to embrace the one thing she’s been fighting all along.Ĭhapters Indigo | Amazon | Barnes & Noble | Book Depository Rescued by a mysterious gentleman on the eve of execution, she’s whisked away to a school funded by Queen Victoria, established to train selected Tainted into assassins in service of the crown.
