3.5 starsThis book lost half a star for an unfortunate first chapter, but retained the high end of 3.5 because it was a standalone, despite being in a series. I'm not kidding, it was a seriously bad first chapter with confusing names being dropped every five seconds and explanations of who everyone was in a very infodumping manner. To make things worse, some names being dropped were pretty similar, and one place seemed to have multiple names for it, so that I had to go back and check information a couple of times. A bad first chapter might not have held as much weight if the chapters weren't each so long. If this had had a (once-)standard 10% sample and I had previewed it instead of buying sight-unseen, I probably wouldn't have continued. The first chapter goes to 14%.Luckily, as soon as we switched to Adale's POV in chapter two, information was dropped more naturally. Where Esofi's friends were each described in detail as they were introduced, we were left to infer the history of Adale's friends based on their interactions, and it worked so much better. Adale also had a more personable POV, endearing me to her as soon as we got to her POV (whereas in Esofi's first chapter I didn't feel a connection to either girl).A lovely aspect of this book is that there was no heteronormativity at all in this world. Even when talking about whether an heir is needed, the magic of the world allowed for a temporary sex change to allow for a f/f pairing to have a child (m/m still needed a surrogate, though; sorry, guys); it's also mentioned that the sex change could be permanent if that was where the person's gender belonged. There was also a neutral gender in this world. Neither the magical sex change nor the neutral gender affected our main characters in this book, but it was nice to see it included. I wasn't sure at first if Esofi was asexual, and I was hoping she was, but I think she just hadn't allowed herself to considering anybody romantically, since she had been betrothed from the age of 3.I liked the gradual nature of the girls' romance in the book. Their initial relationship comes from a place of duty for both of them (one reluctantly so), and there are hints of "I hope we can develop a relationship" "Wait, I might actually want to court her" before anything resembling love blossoms. My last read was pure instalove, and it was nice to see this one go with a slower burn.I also enjoyed that the characters proved competent in their own ways. Esofi, who comes in all pretty pretty princessy (and overweight!), is competent in battle and diplomacy from the beginning. Adale has further to go to get to a point where she has confidence in herself, but she proves herself competent in picking up clues (thank you for not dragging them out so we figure them out long before the characters do) and researching. I was hoping there was more to some of Adale's contributions, but nothing was ever explained about them, and I get the feeling that this book ends Esofi and Adale's story.Speaking of which, I really love the pacing of this book and that it had its own conclusion on every account. The author has left the world open to more stories, but this story feels so satisfactorily finished.So, if you can get past the first chapter, the rest of the book is really good :)Recommended for fans of: F/F relationships; characters all over the LGBTQIA spectrum; dragons; standalone stories in bigger worlds; slower burn relationships; names beginning with A, E, I, or L; apology kittens
