The Crown of Gilded Bones

by Jennifer L. Armentrout

Our rating

Spice 4/5 Darkness 3/5

Spice: high. Darkness: dark.

Poppy and Casteel head into Atlantia and nobody there is thrilled to meet her. The lore gets thick and the banter keeps coming, and the ending is one of the nastier cliffhangers in the series.
