I was so excited for this book！ I loved the first one and sped through it， it ended on a cliff-hanger so I was desperate for the second one。 It did no disappoint！ This book made me feel a number of emotions， happy， sad， nervous and shocked。 This had amazing world building， so much character growth and it was an emotional rollercoaster。 the characters had some great journeys， I love how the main crew has become a sort of found family， it's such a great trope！ and I love their relationships with e I was so excited for this book！ I loved the first one and sped through it， it ended on a cliff-hanger so I was desperate for the second one。 It did no disappoint！ This book made me feel a number of emotions， happy， sad， nervous and shocked。 This had amazing world building， so much character growth and it was an emotional rollercoaster。 the characters had some great journeys， I love how the main crew has become a sort of found family， it's such a great trope！ and I love their relationships with each otherThis book defiantly topped the first and I can see the series getting even better and better！！ Also the series is transitioning from young adult to new adult; which is awesome and works really well！ Thank you Chole for sending me the arc for writing an amazing book！ 。。。more

A Queen Comes to Power left me astounded。 I've been so excited to read this book from the moment I finished An Heir Comes to Rise and now I get to finish AQCTP。 I miss all the characters and the world setting。 It feels good to finally read about them again。 AQCTP has a special place on my heart to the point that this book made me cry for 1 hour straight！ Yes， one hour。 The found family trope being one of the reason why I cried。 Their bonding was so special。 They're a group of dreamers that conti A Queen Comes to Power left me astounded。 I've been so excited to read this book from the moment I finished An Heir Comes to Rise and now I get to finish AQCTP。 I miss all the characters and the world setting。 It feels good to finally read about them again。 AQCTP has a special place on my heart to the point that this book made me cry for 1 hour straight！ Yes， one hour。 The found family trope being one of the reason why I cried。 Their bonding was so special。 They're a group of dreamers that continues to hope and fight despite the challenges being thrown at them。In this 2nd book of the series， a new and mysterious fae general was introduced。 *drum roll* His name is Reylan！ I was a bit suspicious of him at first but as chapters go by， I get to know him more and I loved it to bits。 Jakon and Marlowe being the couple of the year hahaha。 They're truly meant for each other。 I was also amazed by Tauria， I get to know her back story and she makes a really kind friend to Faythe。 Nik， i missed him！！！ In this book， i was left speechless by Nik in some parts that I didn't expected。 And lastly， Faythe！ Oh how I miss her so much too。 She left me teary-eyed when she began embracing everything that happens and continue to fight no matter how hard it is and no matter who gets in the way。 I am so glad that she's not alone and will never be because this group of dreamers got each other's back。 If you're a fantasy reader and loves royals， fae， an amazing world， secrets and mystery about the past， found family trope， and battles then this series is for you！Most of the events left me stunned。 This book is a masterpiece。 It may left me with puffy eyes but I still love it。 So excited for the next book！ To the author， thank you so much for the ARC， you're amazing！ 。。。more

What a wild ride！ It was great to get back to Faythe and her crew to find out what the next part of her journey entails。。。 （view spoiler）[ I have to admit， I wasn't happy about the 'bait and switch' on the love interest， but I love Reylan who is basically a nicotine patch for anyone having Rowan Whitethorn withdrawals， so I'll forgive it。 Just。 （hide spoiler）]The story progresses nicely and at a good pace， giving each character depth。 Penaranda is very good at setting the scene and drawing you What a wild ride！ It was great to get back to Faythe and her crew to find out what the next part of her journey entails。。。 （view spoiler）[ I have to admit， I wasn't happy about the 'bait and switch' on the love interest， but I love Reylan who is basically a nicotine patch for anyone having Rowan Whitethorn withdrawals， so I'll forgive it。 Just。 （hide spoiler）]The story progresses nicely and at a good pace， giving each character depth。 Penaranda is very good at setting the scene and drawing you in and I enjoyed the book immensely。 Now I just have to eagerly await book 3。。。 *taps toes* 。。。more

I want to thank the author for this ARC and wanted to state how much I loved this book and this series so far！！ I felt such a range of emotions in this book I can’t even describe it， but I was so satisfied by the ending but was sad it was over because it was so great and I didn’t want to leave the story！This book very much reminds me TOG which is my all time favorite series so I die for anything that reminds me of it！ But the world is unique with the different kind of fae and the powers they pos I want to thank the author for this ARC and wanted to state how much I loved this book and this series so far！！ I felt such a range of emotions in this book I can’t even describe it， but I was so satisfied by the ending but was sad it was over because it was so great and I didn’t want to leave the story！This book very much reminds me TOG which is my all time favorite series so I die for anything that reminds me of it！ But the world is unique with the different kind of fae and the powers they possess， which is a twist I love！ The dark fae concept in this book was something I cannot wait to learn more about in the next books！ I felt that the perspectives for each chapter were well placed and I like having the perspective of new characters as well。 The love stories in this this definitely left me wanting more but not in a bad way at all， it was in a way that had me trying to figure out what was going on！ The writing of friendships is amazing， the author really shows true M/F friendships without the sexual tension which is an aspect I love！ My only complaint is the MC was driving me crazy though sometimes with her need to take on every burden。 I was just begging her to let her friends in but in the end it’s not really that big of deal I still loved her regardless and I can relate in her difficulty to accept and ask for help！This book was amazing the plot and the twists had me on the edge of my seat！ I loved the ending and how I wasn’t left on a cliffhanger and it made me 10x more excited for the next book in the series！ I recommend anyone who loves TOG to read this book！！ 。。。more

This book is even better than the first！！！ Easily one of my favorite reads from 2021。The plot significantly progresses， the relationships we knew and loved further developed， and we got to meet some new characters。 One of those characters has quickly become a favorite。 I really enjoyed how much the main protagonist has grown since book one。 Her journey is only just beginning， but I'm really excited to see what's to come。 I'm wondering where the story will go from this point on。 The possibilities This book is even better than the first！！！ Easily one of my favorite reads from 2021。The plot significantly progresses， the relationships we knew and loved further developed， and we got to meet some new characters。 One of those characters has quickly become a favorite。 I really enjoyed how much the main protagonist has grown since book one。 Her journey is only just beginning， but I'm really excited to see what's to come。 I'm wondering where the story will go from this point on。 The possibilities are infinite now after certain reveals。To top it off， there's a budding romance with Faythe that I cannot get enough of。 I won't get into spoiler territory， but hot damn am I fan of a certain general。 When you meet him you'll know who I'm talking about。 I have certain suspicions as to what he is to Faythe， but I'll just have to wait for book 3 for confirmation。 Hopefully。 ;）Overall， this is a promising beginning， and I cannot wait until book 3。 。。。more

After absolutely loving 'An Heir Comes to Rise'， I couldn't wait to find out what happened next - and I wasn't disappointed！ Unlike many book series in which the sequel seems to be a lot of filler， 'A Queen Comes to Power' was full of excitement and the story progressed in a very well-paced way。 Our main character 'Faythe' goes through so much in this installment but it all feels very true to her character and none of it feels forced。 The author has a very descriptive way of writing which really After absolutely loving 'An Heir Comes to Rise'， I couldn't wait to find out what happened next - and I wasn't disappointed！ Unlike many book series in which the sequel seems to be a lot of filler， 'A Queen Comes to Power' was full of excitement and the story progressed in a very well-paced way。 Our main character 'Faythe' goes through so much in this installment but it all feels very true to her character and none of it feels forced。 The author has a very descriptive way of writing which really fuels the imagination， none of our main characters are left out and everyone has a part to play。 I enjoyed how certain characters relationships evolved in this book， with the addition of some very important new characters the book still flows incredibly well and are written in such a way that encourages you to care about them from the start。 I am excited to see what happens in book 3 and I know that our author is going to go on to even greater things。 。。。more

5/5 starsWhere do I start with this one？ It was- amazing。 Excellent。 Spectacular。 Just like book one， this is one of my favorite reads all year。Let's start with the worldbuilding。 The world building within the AHCTR series is so intricate， and incredibly detailed。 In book one， we learn mainly about the kingdom where Faythe lives， but in book 2， we see more of Ungardia。 You can tell how much time， effort， and research the author put into building this world， and it really pays off。 Next- the char 5/5 starsWhere do I start with this one？ It was- amazing。 Excellent。 Spectacular。 Just like book one， this is one of my favorite reads all year。Let's start with the worldbuilding。 The world building within the AHCTR series is so intricate， and incredibly detailed。 In book one， we learn mainly about the kingdom where Faythe lives， but in book 2， we see more of Ungardia。 You can tell how much time， effort， and research the author put into building this world， and it really pays off。 Next- the characters。 They were just as amazing as ever， and we even got to meet several new ones！ I really did love *a particular* new character。 It was also cool that we got to see inside almost all of the characters' heads。 I thought that helped to let us understand them more。The Plot。 I can't say much about this one without spoiling anything， but the plot was quite interesting and continued where we left off in book one。 The pacing was perfect， and I was able to read the book in a few hours。The romance wasn't as prominent in this book， but I still feel like we got a good amount。 It was focused more on （view spoiler）[ Jakon and Marlowe （hide spoiler）]， which I actually liked。 In conclusion， this was such an amazing sequel。 It didn't suffer from second book syndrome， and it left me waiting for the next book， just like AHCTR did。 I highly recommend reading the second book in this amazingly series。 。。。more

I loved book 1 （An Heir Comes to Rise） and blimey， book 2 is even better。 I love Faythe's character development and how she and her friends overcome toil and troubles。 I also love how the author didn't make Faythe & Nik relationship "awkward" given what happened in book 1， and I love their dynamic in this book。 Jakon is a sweetheart， Tauria and Marlowe are wonders and REYLAN！ New character everyone should meet because swoon。Can't wait for book 3 already！ I loved book 1 （An Heir Comes to Rise） and blimey， book 2 is even better。 I love Faythe's character development and how she and her friends overcome toil and troubles。 I also love how the author didn't make Faythe & Nik relationship "awkward" given what happened in book 1， and I love their dynamic in this book。 Jakon is a sweetheart， Tauria and Marlowe are wonders and REYLAN！ New character everyone should meet because swoon。Can't wait for book 3 already！ 。。。more
