TEEN BOOK WARNING

This is my official TEEN BOOK warning. I have put it here so that you know about teen books. If you have read a one of my reviews of a teen book and feel like you want to try reading it, please read this. If you are just browsing my blog please read this. I want nothing to do with you getting in trouble for reading a book, so please refer here before blaming me for not waring you.
I review TEEN BOOKS. These books tend to deal with some slightly more mature themes and ideas that are not necessarily what your parent(s) (unless you are a parent, in which case you (Or you're a teacher in which case the parents of your students)) would want you to read. If the authority figure which may be your parent(s), the parents, or you the parent says go for it, have fun, or if you have any questions come to me etc., then fine by me go ahead but as the friendly blogger behind the screen I feel the need to present this information before I delve into the nitty-gritty-fun stuff.

Ash Princess by Laura Sebastian

Hello my dear bibliophiles,
This is my review and opinion of Ash Princess by Laura Sebastian. So if you are into fantasy, like me, this book might remind you of Red Queen or Throne of Glass if you've read them. I definitely got a feel of both the books in this one. So if you liked those this would be good.
Anyways, the main characters that I can talk about without spoiling stuff.

  • Theodosia- So her name was actually the main reason that I decided to read this book. I saw Theodosia and immediately thought of Hamilton. Yeah that has become a recent obsession, thanks CA, anymore Hamilfans out there? Comment if you are. Back to Theodosia. She's the Queen of a nonexistent country (like I said Throne of Glass feel to it) and has become part of the conquering country's court. One night she is forced to kill someone and discovers a truth within herself. This is no longer the time to hide but a time to take back her kingdom.
  • The Kaiser- He is the Villain. The Big Bad. The worst of the worst. There that is all I can say without spoiling it for you
So yeah that's two characters, and there are more important characters in the book but I can't explain them or like name them without spoiling things. Sorry 😢. But hey that gets you wondering doesn't it? 
The plot, DUN DUN DUUUU! Yes, I know its not a bad thing but I'm feeling dramatic/extra today so  I decided to go with it. Any-who. So Theo is the princess of this conquered country called Astrea. She has been in this conquering court for ten long years as Lady Thora the Ash Princess. One day she is forced to do the unthinkable, kill someone. After this event, Theo discovers that she can no longer stand idly by and survive but take action and reclaim her throne and country. 
I really enjoyed reading this book. It was FANTABULOUS! One of my favorite things about it is that the main character is a girl right. Not only that but she's a girl with her own mind and thoughts. No one tells her what to do, well aside from the kaiser but he's the king and in charge of everything. I say 13-14 as a minimum age or a mature 12 year old. I give it ten of ten paw prints. 🐾🐾🐾🐾🐾🐾🐾🐾🐾🐾
Tootles,
