Daughter of No Worlds

"While I did really enjoy this book, I found some parts quite the slog to get through. I intend on continuing the series, but it isn't at the top of my list. Wonderful lead character, though! Really carried the book!"

"I love Broadbent’s action-packed writing! She delivered on a strong fmc, too, which I am always here for"

"I liked the overall concept of this book but I found the main character so ANNOYING! I’m curious where this series is going to go but I’m on the edge if I want to continue"

"As fantasy novels go, this is one of my favorites. You spend the first third of the book following our heroine on her journey to "freedom." All the while, you get a fantastic world building walking tour that doesn't make you feel like you're having everything explained to you. Cue grumpy reluctant teacher with a garden that Sam Gamgee would be jealous of and the next third of the book you learn about the lore and history of the world all while falling in love with the characters. Subtle character growth you don't realize happens until all of the sudden it's there. And then, the final third of the book where you're in the brink of tears, giddiness and an adrenaline dump the entire time. Highly recommend 9/10. "

"It's not very often that a book surprises me. While fantasy romance is my go-to, I've read too much of it to be easily swayed. Still, I thought this was the perfect balance of angst and magical intrigue. Tisaanah reminded me of Celaena from Throne of Glass but a little more realistic in the way her circumstances molded her. She made herself into whatever people wanted her to be to survive. I do not think that makes her weak. Quite the opposite actually. And it was beautiful to watch her become her own self. <br/><br/>The development between Tisannah and Max was slow and perfect. Often authors jump right into the romance portion and it feels so unrealistic and overly done. These two have been thru something and to cross those burned bridges takes time. Also I was surprised about the language barrier. It's silly to look back on all the books I've read and never notice that everyone speaks the same language with the same inflections most of the time. How unrealistic lol. So to see Tisannah struggle with this humanized her. It also made for some very cute scenes.<br/><br/>I will say the only disappointment was the side characters who were not flushed out enough. That's really it. There is some political intrigue, some twist and turns, and a beautiful blooming romance. Just loved it. But be forewarned the next book suffers from 2nd book syndrome. So much so that I almost lowered my rating on this one because of it. But I didn't believe that to be fair."

"Loved this but unsure if I’m wanting to read the next. I was pretty bored with it by the end."

"I wanted to like this book but I was so bored. I like the main female character but I was just so bored. There are two more books to this series. I just do t know if I want to finish it. "

"It was a roller coaster, getting through this book. It bends from heart breaking to comforting. Yes there is romance and a bit of spice but really it is the plot that kept me going. Love it. "

"LOVE LOVE LOVE THIS BOOK"

"It didn’t give what I thought it was going to give."
