[Sarah Elizabeth]

Royals have secret, as much as anyone else’s.

17-year-old Cathy Charlotte thought that her mom still keeping a secret about their family. Until one day, odd things are starting to happen—the white hair girl who has been haunted her dreams is coming to reality as their so-called distant relative—Sylvia Elle who acts all strange and mysterious. Meanwhile, everyone in the small town of Bisbee are welcoming a new detective—Chantel Herron who later becomes co-worker to Cathy’s dad.

A sudden circumstance has caused her mom to coma after unknown demons are failed to kidnap her. At that hard time, Sylvia Elle finally reveals herself as a guardian angel who is currently assigned to help her discovering the whole things that her mom has been keeping.

Further, she found out that Chantel is the evil witch with demons works under her command. They want to hunt Cathy for their welfare sake to empower the hidden world of Caecus by experimenting her royal blood. That magical realm is concealed behind an abandoned castle in Austria—where her mom’s family secrecy is also buried in there. Eventually, Cathy is the key to open the door and to save the world.

11% - have to say I'm having problems with the writing in this, I'm guessing that english isn't the authors first language, and a lot of this doesn't make much sense.

(view spoiler)[ I have no idea what is going on. Now that you mention it Sarah, it makes so much more sense if English isn't the author's first language. I feel like I'm doing one of my Latin assignments. The words are translated literally into English instead of figuratively, which makes the grammar mistakes a lot more prominent. (hide spoiler)]

[Sarah Elizabeth]

I think the author is Indonesian ☺

[Sharon]

Chapter 1 (7%): (view spoiler)[ I think the book is kind of weird and confusing, and I am only one chapter in. I am finding it hard to understand what is going on in the story. (hide spoiler)]

[Sharon]

Chapter 4 (19%): (view spoiler)[ The writing is lacking and I think it is making the story more confusing. It makes me want to stop reading the book because I do not have a clue what is happening throughout these first five chapters. (hide spoiler)]

Sharon wrote: "Chapter 4 (19%): [spoilers removed]"

I felt like that for the entire book.

[Sharon]

Chapter 10 (46%): (view spoiler)[ This one seems to be dragging out for me. The chapters are long and there is a lot of information that has to be absorbed. This book is not as interesting as I thought it would be. The description made it sound promising, but for me, I do not think it lived up to its potential. (hide spoiler)]

Oh dear. (view spoiler)[ I think my rating is going to be low. I just can't seem to get into this book. (hide spoiler)]

[Sarah Elizabeth]

I just couldn't handle the writing. The way it was written just killed it for me.

I understand what you mean I just finished the book. Review to come.

Ending Thoughts: (view spoiler)[ I am kind of disappointed in the way the book turned. The characters were lacking for me. Also, it was confusing. However, I think the major issue I had with this book was the writing. It was very uninteresting and all over the place. I did not know what was going on. (hide spoiler)]
