Tragic but inspiring
Revisado: 08-28-23
While this is a fictional novel the story captured is one that many have had to face in our world. While our stories differ from each other, sadly discrimination is still a blight on this world causing many to suppress their truths. Absolutely breathtaking story and narration. Read ASAP

The Hidden Palace was the last place that Lei would ever consider home. The trauma and tragedy she suffered behind those opulent walls would plague her forever. She could not be trapped there with the sadistic king again, especially without Wren. The last Lei saw of the girl she loved, Wren was fighting an army of soldiers in a furious battle to the death. With the two girls torn apart and each in terrorizing peril, will they find each other again, or have their destinies diverged forever?

Beautiful series
Revisado: 12-03-22
I just finished the series and I can honestly say it was a gem. At the beginning of the series I will say that the narrator grated on my ears simply because it felt like a mom telling a story to a toddler, however as the story progressed she did improve and also grew on me.
The Good: The story truly is amazing, not only for the storytelling but the tie in to real world issues that many people face everyday. I was touched by the honesty of the author. Clearly this book was a product of passion to help people who have gone through trauma. The narrator as mentioned above didn’t really match the book in my opinion but she did perform well throughout the series and certainly as it aged. All the characters, even the villains were written very well and believable.
The less good: all in all the story was wonderful, giving a voice to people who rarely have one. For this reason alone I can’t really fault it, however I think it should be mentioned. Most of the relationships in the book seemed almost forced with how often they were homosexual (I myself am one so I can appreciate this) but I think it almost seems unfitting to unjust world the author is painting.
Final thanks to the author
I grew up in a very abusing household that eventually led to some very serious mental health issues that I had to work through in my young adult life. I am not a woman but I felt connected to tribulations the characters endured. I am so grateful to read a book that had so much love poured into it that couldn’t stop reading. Thank you so much, I look forward to your next book.
