Really enjoyed this book, I read this in one sitting and am already looking forward to the next book in the series. All the Fragile Hearts has: court intrigue, arranged marriages, enemies to lovers (loose definition), magic, and a realistic FMC/MMC romance/relationship that I really enjoyed. There was also a strong emphasis on female power that I enjoyed in this book and I can’t wait to see how the FMC continues to grow.

I really enjoyed the politics in All the Fragile Hearts, as just was well written and interesting. The romance between Cecila and Viktor, is realistic in the circumstances and I loved the tension between the two. I appreciated that they are in thirties and forties. It was great to see a romance in a fantasy between two characters that is not usually seen in fantasy books.

This is a wonderful fantasy read. We follow two main characters, Cecelia and Viktor, both champions in their own right as the come together navigating a changing political landscape. With any adult fantasy novel I expect magic, fairies, adventure, quests, romance and wild characters. This book had all that and more. Both the plot and character development was great. I sincerely enjoyed how the two main characters evolved and found themselves as the story progressed.

I really enjoyed how M.T Solomon employed excerpts from future and past books/communications at the start of each chapter. The author did an excellent job of guiding and misleading me as a reader. Overall I really really enjoyed this book. I cannot wait for the next one in the series.

Thank you Netgalley and Victory Editing NetGalley Co-op, Fox Poppy Press for this advanced reader copy. All my opinions are my own.

This isn’t two young kids, they are grown adults who are both powerful in their own right. Especially our FMC Cecelia. She is a STRONG female that I admire.
There is magic, politics, enemies to lovers, arranged marriage and more!

Definitely recommend.
