Along with her best friend Jaya, she longs to stay at the temple instead of being married off to some strange man…or worse, made his courtesan (essentially a mistress to a married man). She has always been sickly, suffering from intense fevers as a child. Kalinda is a ward of the Sisterhood, a holy group of women that raise the wards to wed men or become their servants.
But I plan on reading the next one ASAP.īut enough about me. I wanted to start the sequel, The Fire Queen, right after this one…but one thing led to another, and I ended up reading something else. Someone else is sending me the next two so I have the most recent books in the series since I must continue now that I started. Not only did I have this one on NetGalley, but a friend donated a copy for my classroom library. You know I like to start with the covers…and this one is as drool-worthy as most of the recent books: I kept reading about tropes and stereotypes in other people’s reviews…I guess I see what they are saying, but I personally really enjoyed it. I was hesitant for the longest time to read it because I really loved Emily and I didn’t want to dislike her book. I want to say that this book has received a LOT of mixed reviews…and I just don’t know why. Maybe it’s because I’m old? Who knows! 🤷♀️ Is it just me, or is time literally moving faster? I know it can’t just be me. (Well, there is another indie book I will review, but this feels like the last big one, you know?) Once this review is written, I’ll be able to see my book count in its entirety. Yes, this is officially the last book of 2017! Crazy. This review can be found on my Blog, TeacherofYA’s Tumblr, or my Goodreads page ** I received an ARC of this book free from NetGalley in exchange for an honest review** Title: The Hundredth Queen (The Hundredth Queen #1)
