Scarlett was such the poster child for Slytherin because she gave two fucks who and what she had to step on to get her goal. Which to me are the quintessential Slytherin power couple. The Shadows Between Us is marketed as a Slytherin romance which to me in the beginning Alessandra and Kallias gave me Movie! Scarlett O’Hara and Rhett Butler Vibes( I say movie because I still haven’t read the book yet lol). This was my second time reading from this author but my first time finishing a book from her. This is the second book I read this year that has trope of ” Female trying to make the dude fall in love with her in order to get revenge on him or take something for him” which I spent most of my time trying to not to roll my eyes everytime she said ” When I kill the king to become queen.” This was a little bit better than Of Curses and Kisses by Sandhya Menon but not much. That’s the the only thing with substance because other than that it fell flat. I buried Hektor Galanis in a hole so deep, even the devils of the earth couldn’t reach him.” -Alessandra Chapter 1 “They’ve never found the body of the first and only boy who broke my heart. (Spoilers) You can also read it on my GR!
Received an arc from publisher via Edelweiss in exchange for an honest review. After all, who better for a Shadow King than a cunning, villainous queen? As attempts on his life are made, she finds herself trying to keep him alive long enough for him to make her his queen-all while struggling not to lose her heart.
Regardless, Alessandra knows what she deserves, and she’s going to do everything within her power to get it.īut Alessandra’s not the only one trying to kill the king.
Others say they speak to him, whispering the thoughts of his enemies. Some say he can command the shadows that swirl around him to do his bidding. No one knows the extent of the freshly crowned Shadow King’s power. Alessandra is tired of being overlooked, but she has a plan to gain power:ģ) Kill him and take his kingdom for herself.
