What I liked:
Castle in their bones is told in alternating points of view of 3 triplets created with the help of stardust, raised from birth to help their mother rule the world. The author has created an exciting magic system centered around the stars, and those powerful enough to pull leads from the sky are called Empryeas. The three sisters and their future husbands make for some fascinating reading. Each one has been paired since birth, but one is gay, one has to take the place of his brother who died, and the other is not well-liked. The plot of this story you think you know where it is going, but there are some plot twists I did not even see coming, and wow, the ending. This author has always delivered a good story, which is no exception.
Final Verdict:
Castles in their Bones is the perfect story for fans of House of Dragons, To Kill a Kingdom, and Shadow Between us. It keeps you guessing; the political intrigue, the lengths the mother goes to, and the betrayals are so shocking. The romance is done sweet and slow and not over the top. I can not wait for the next installment of this series. You might be up all night finishing this one.
