Read The Assassin's Curse by Cassandra Rose Clarke

📚 I really disliked this at the start. The main protagonist was whiny and annoying; a privileged brat who – unfortunately – does not grow up much during the book.

Luckily once the story got going I enjoyed it well enough.

It felt like the author had a premise she liked but had trouble getting all the characters there (and that was a big chunk of the first book).
I’ve started on the second book already and either I’ve gotten used to the characters and her writing or it’s just better written so far.
