Then came the announcement that we wouldn’t be going back to work next week. When I saw Three Dark Crowns on the shelves at work, after we closed to the public, I thought, “Maybe this is the kind of story I need right now…” I checked it out and read it over two days. I struggled to find a book that could hold my interest. But I’m picky about fantasy and about young adult fantasy especially, so I didn’t expect I would actually read the book one day. Mostly I did this because I loved the cover. I added Three Dark Crowns to my ‘to-read-ya-maybe’ shelf back in the summer of 2017. The night the sisters turn sixteen, the battle begins. And it’s not just a game of win or lose…it’s life or death. Arsinoe, a naturalist, is said to have the ability to bloom the reddest rose and control the fiercest of lions.īut becoming the Queen Crowned isn’t solely a matter of royal birth. Katharine is a poisoner, one who can ingest the deadliest poisons without so much as a stomachache. Mirabella is a fierce elemental, able to spark hungry flames or vicious storms at the snap of her fingers. In every generation on the island of Fennbirn, a set of triplets is born-three queens, all equal heirs to the crown and each possessor of a coveted magic.
