Review:
“It’s burning worlds all the way down” 🔥
If you liked Priory of the Orange Tree, you’ll LOVE The Jasmine Throne! This is an immersive story, full of intensity with breaks of charming tenderness 🤌
Told mainly from 2 POVs, I appreciated the extra POVs scattered throughout the story so much. The glimpses into the inner workings of important characters were unique and very satisfying. Very much looking forward to the rest of this series
