{Review} The Crown of Embers @RaeCarson

The Crown of Embers (Fire and Thorns, #2)
In the sequel to the acclaimed The Girl of Fire and Thorns, a seventeen-year-old princess turned war queen faces sorcery, adventure, untold power, and romance as she fulfills her epic destiny.

Elisa is the hero of her country. She led her people to victory against a terrifying enemy, and now she is their queen. But she is only seventeen years old. Her rivals may have simply retreated, choosing stealth over battle. And no one within her court trusts her-except Hector, the commander of the royal guard, and her companions. As the country begins to crumble beneath her and her enemies emerge from the shadows, Elisa will take another journey. With a one-eyed warrior, a loyal friend, an enemy defector, and the man she is falling in love with, Elisa crosses the ocean in search of the perilous, uncharted, and mythical source of the Godstone's power. That is not all she finds. A breathtaking, romantic, and dangerous second volume in the Fire and Thorns trilogy.

I wasnt really a fan of book one.  Although I did like it.  It wasnt a book that I would die to read.  Although now as I just finished book two I am head over heels in love with this series and wish that I could have read it sooner but, also grateful that I didnt as I would have had to wait for the next one to come out.  This is a deff 5 stars for me.  And if you havent read this you need to!

"Purchased this book via Books A Million as well as via Amazon"

I read the first book by chance and enjoyed it. I am personally having a hard time getting into the second one. Maybe I will give it another go.

I haven't read a lot of fantasy books, but I'm thinking I need to because everyone seems to love these series
