However, I don’t care about that right now.īut then the Tournament makes a little less sense. I liked that, although I will never truly buy ladies can punch men in the face like they do in some of the tasks and still win with equal results. It worked the other way around, there were female soldiers, female announcers and other female characters just everywhere. Simply everybody competed in the Tournament, and everybody had the same chances to win, and everybody could marry a man or a lady if they achieved to accomplish every challenge. I really appreciate the author decided to avoid the intolerance and prejudices that takes place in our reality. I liked the acceptance of pairs of the same sex. It was a blast.Ībout the world building, it’s kind of a Medieval setting, with griffons and invented herbs and foods included. I wanted to squeeze and squeeze and never let go. They were funny and impossible to get bored of. I didn’t expect to love the characters so much and enjoy the time spent with them like that. They had that vibe about them that intoxicate you into believing you can’t live without them. Not in a way that make you feel like punching their smug handsome faces but in that sincere and raw way there is no sense to escape from.

They were literally A-D-O-R-A-B-L-E and I love cute characters with all my being.īecause the MCs were NICE, capital letters. They invited you to go on with them and never stop following and spying on them. They indeed fit together, their banter was hilarious and smile-inducing.

For him to smile and smile and kiss Rath every time he could. I don’t have words to express how much I longed for Tress to sneak out of home and find Rath yet again to do mischievous things I’m not going to tell here. I can’t believe how much I liked to see his stupid handsome face appear, as much as Rath does, even though he doesn’t understand why he fancies this hoity-toity man so much. He has that kind of honesty and sense of humor and charisma that makes you want to pursue him everywhere. Since page 1 I wanted to be with him at all hours. The genuine character that you immediately like in movies. I loved Rath, he was just that kind of person.

You only have to scratch a little and a little more. But still, he has dreams of his own, very very deep inside. A cynical and a little of a rascal, with experience to prove that there is no such thing as wishes that come true, because reality will shatter them all. But it doesn’t end here, because things can always get worse, like every time her father doesn’t pay his debts.īut now Cinderella is a guy. This book is a fairy tale, the Cinderella with a big heart struggling to keep her head above water day after day in a miserable life, working for a little amount of money and selling her body when that’s not enough. No, happier than an idiot when finding a pencil. I was most of the time like that, smiling like an idiot. What's this? I have this thing plastered on my face that refuses to let me be.
