The Queen's Assassin

Horrendous. Absolutely not worth it.

I started reading this book in hopes of an exiting story. One in which time flies by and emotions are evoked. Well truth is, this book contains nothing of said things. It lacks a well written plot. One right from the start can figure out that measly plot. And a very common plot at that. It lacks emotions. Where as books I have read, contain emotions, that are not only portrayed between the characters, but also entice the readers, this feels like a documentary. I absolutely dislike the storyline. There is no tension between the love interests, nor any indication that they matter to each other. And if that can be in the slightest found, it is not very well described and again, lacks emotion. The author included jealousy that can’t even be reasoned, since the character did not even indicate ever being truly interested in the other. Romance, humor, good interactions and good plots were just bluntly disregarded. It contains not so exiting adventures, filled with unimportant dialogue that lacks every sense of emotion. I really do not understand the hype it has gathered and I would never recommend it to readers. To put it even further, regarding the title, you would expect it to be littered with fighting scenes or even a sense of brutality. Even wattpad houses books, that are more sophisticated and well written than this book.
