Cursed Crowns by Katherine Webber, Catherine Doyle

adventurous lighthearted fast-paced

5.0

 This sequel to Twin Crowns managed to hit all three points of my second book checklist to make it great - new settings, new characters, and new dangers to face, as Rose finds herself in the long lost Sunkissed Kingdom and Wren travels to the icy realm of Gevra to rescue Banba.

This story took so many turns I wasn't expecting, from the vivid new characters introduced in the Sunkissed Kingdom, to returning characters and a surprise new romance. These new challenges really moved Wren and Rose's story forward and set up the building blocks for the next book.

It's so refreshing to read a second book in a series that doesn't feel like filler, that has stories to tell in it's own right. The ending made me so excited for the third book, but I'm worried not all my favourite characters will make it to the final pages.
