Things I liked: Death (pronounced like 'teeth') and Lovejoy, the ciphers, learning more about Leck's reign in Monsea, the new characters, the return of the old characters (especially later on), the descriptions of the castle and the city.
Thing I didn't like: The fact that Bitterblue's ten-year ignorance was never explained, Bitterblue's thick-headedness after being presented as being intelligent, that the romance seemed shallow and not very meaningful i ...more

After so much anticipation, I am extremely disappointed by this book. The book is not awful, but it could have been fantastic.

Även om Bitterblue är mer av en berättelse om hur Monsea återställs från Lecks styre och mindre en kärlekshistoria, så älskar jag boken. Usch, hela boken krossar egentligen mitt hjärta för att den är så sorglig men jag älskar den ändå. Jag orkar inte riktigt förklara vad boken handlar om så du får helt enkelt ta och läsa den.

Not as good as the other two set in the same world but I still thought it was really interesting. I liked the fact that there wasn't a huge romance, it focused more about the struggle of a girl trying to become a queen

I enjoyed this book for the most part. I really liked Bitterblue's fire and spunk. I also was a big fan of Teddy and Saf. The ending fell flat for me though. Probably my favorite of the three books.
