What is it with the romantasy genre and the concept of trials/tournaments in which characters need to fight to the death in order to achieve greatness or some honor? Don't get me wrong it works and it is very entertaining however, I feel like I'm constantly reading a similar storyline. For a debut novel, I think that Roberts did an excellent job. I enjoyed the story along with the world building and overall I'm looking forward to where this story goes next because it does have potential. Why doe

*Update* I just finished Red Queen by Victoria Aveyard which was published 8 years before and Powerless seems to be a cheap ripoff of it in comparison. From the pickpocketing MC to the same types of "Elites" (Silvers in Red Queen) and "Ordinaries" (Reds in Red Queen) down to the double love interest of two princes, it's a literal near replica. Yikes! I do however like there's more romance in Powerless but it's still a YA non-spicy romance. If you're thinking of reading one, I'd recommend Red Que

I've seen all of the reviews about this being almost identical to The Hunger Games but guess what? I haven't read The Hunger Games so I can't tell you if those reviews are accurate. I know there are similarities but I don't know how close the stories really are 🤷 All I know is I really liked this one. I'm slowly dipping my toes into the fantasy realm and this was another good one for me. It was fast paced, had some tension and a love triangle, and I loved the world of Ilya. I can't wait to see w

Flew through this! The book is essentially the hunger games plot line but with magic.

Ended on a cliff hanger which made it even better for me

At first, I was hesitant about leaving a rating/review because I know that this is a new author and I genuinely don't want to cause damage. Ultimately, I thought that I could leave something to help her grow and maybe prevent people from wasting time like I did...
Probably like most of you, I saw a promo for this book on TikTok. Self-published success story. Unfortunately, it does read like a self-published book. It's too wordy, the dialogue is clunky/cliche (Ex: there is a scene where a villain ...more

I was hesitant to start this book because of all the “it’s plots are recycled” and “it’s unoriginal” stuff. And while I did notice a couple “similarities” between some other books I’ve read… I really enjoyed it!
I thought it had enough originality that it didn’t feel like a copy of other books! And I actually enjoyed the plot!
Plus Kai Azer the man you are 😍 lol
I definitely liked this book and am excited to read more from this series!
