The book was decent. In some aspects it was fantastic and connected the Rivers girls. It was incredibly interesting to see Jacquetta-Elizabeth interaction and then Elizabeth-Elizabeth of York action. It was a very odd book though. There wasn't enough development of the power to provide a stronger story. Elizabeth Woodville is horrible at magic and needs her mother to help her and then she's knows everything a chapter later. I do feel like the book dragged at some points. It was very interesting to see the protagonist also becoming a rudimentary villain to her daughter. There wasn't really a set manner of interacting between any of the children and their mother.
However, the story provided enough unique ideas and managed to keep a good plot overall. 3.75/5
