About the Book
Book Review
Rating: ⭐⭐⭐✨(3.5/5)
In the story, we follow our main character Aymeri who at the beginning of the book lost her mother which is the Queen of Treoles. Princess Aymeri is left with no choice but to run the Kingdom herself however, she knows nothing how to handle it and her memories are broken into fragments. All she knows is that the Queen didn't take her own life but was murdered. She is grieving while solving all the mysteries that are happening inside the walls of her Kingdom and uncovering the truths about herself.
It is an interesting story that takes place in a medieval era with royalties and magic! It tends to attract the readers at the very beginning because it starts with a death and questions are already flowing in every reader's head. Suspicions and mysteries keep piling up that together with Aymeri, I also don't know who to trust. The plot is indeed captivating, the writing style is good however the world-building was simple and isn't strong enough for me, I just hope the author developed the world more and have a deeper backstory of the different kingdoms. As for the characters, I didn't really formed a connection with them. I was a little annoyed with Aymeri because she keeps on crying and I found her character weak at times but I do understand that she's having problems in running the kingdom, putting the pieces of her memories together and finding her true self. On the brighter side, I do love her character development from a faint-hearted Princess to the destined Queen that she is. Moreover, she isn't your typical Queen because she is a warrior as well! I won't say much about this because I don't want to give away any spoilers!
The Broken Daughter was an enjoyable read but it was too fast-paced that some scenes and revelations were not delivered well, in my opinion. There wasn't enough explanation on how it ended that way and I was also confused sometimes. Nevertheless, it was a good book for me and I hope some of the questions and confusion will be answered in the next book!

Spread love and goodness as always,
