Three Dark Crowns is about triplet sisters, Katharine, Arsinoe, and Mirabella. Each of the girls has been born with a unique magical gift, and one of them is destined to become queen of the land of Fennbirn. Each generation, three sisters are born to the current queen and raised apart. They are each trained in their different magical disciplines with the ultimate goal of killing the other sisters and claiming the throne.

Three Dark Crowns pitches the sisters against each other with peculiar venom. I loved it, including how different each sister was.

Do or have you ever listen to an audiobook and the narrator is just not doing the book justice? Well, this is one of those situations. I finally checked out the book to read it along with the audiobook.

The performer doesn't really change inflection and I feel like doesn't try to make dialogue more engaging.

Books with numbers in them! I do love an Instagram book challenge that makes me absolutely destroy my shelves for no reason…

Lockdown has me feeling like maybe I want to weed one of my bookshelves…

This was a reread for me. I remember I really enjoyed it the first time I read it and I did enjoy this time around too. Though I wouldn‘t rate it as highly as I would have the first time, this was still a solid 3.75⭐️

Check out my Goodreads review: https://www.goodreads.com/review/show/2618986293

Schnoebs @HOTPock3tt I‘m starting the series over and hoping to finally finish reading the last two books before the end of the year 😂 3y
HOTPock3tt You know I completely agree with what you wrote though. When I first read it I was in LOVe with it! One of my top series EVER… but as time went on I realized it kind of wasn‘t was good as I thought unfortunately 😕 still quite enjoyable just not as highly rated in my head as I initially thought! Good luck with the reread!! 😀 our tastes evolved maybe but still a feel good series! ♥️🤗 @Schnoebs (edited) 3y
HOTPock3tt I adore that pic of her though!! where did you get it? @Schnoebs 3y

Schnoebs @HOTPock3tt exactly, it‘s something super simple to read and you can have fun reading it. I started the audiobook today for the second one when I was grocery shopping and got through the first 10 chapters super quick. At this point, I just want to finally mark it off my “series I need to finish” list lol 3y
Schnoebs @HOTPock3tt they‘re dust jackets from The Bookish Box. I got them for all four books when the finally one came out. That‘s another reason why I want to finish. They‘re really nice jackets but so I really want special jackets for a series I only like? I might sell them off once I‘m done 🙃 3y
HOTPock3tt I‘ll buy your Katherine one!! ♥️and possibly this arsinoe one too! Lol 😂 please let me know a price when you‘re ready to sell! @Schnoebs (edited) 3y
Schnoebs @HOTPock3tt I‘ll definitely let you know how it does 3y
HOTPock3tt I think it was so fun at first (I even had a playlist of songs that reminded me of this series! Lol) so I didn‘t realize how SIMPLE the writing was until later books… then I started to get annoyed 😐lol. @Schnoebs (edited) 3y

This is the first book in a long time that I‘ve given up on. I SO wanted to like it, but I just couldn‘t get into it. Well written, but too slow of a burn for me. I‘m so curious, has anyone read the whole series? What did you think? Am I missing out?

jenniferw88 I loved it! But then I like slow-paced books. 3y
BookishMarginalia Maybe it‘s not the right time for this book. It happens! 3y
Katie.happens @jenniferw88 so does my husband! I think my ADHD just couldn‘t take it. The whole first 1/3 was just conversations, but if the ending is what I‘m predicting, it was building toward a twist. I just wasn‘t into it by then 😔 3y

I was not ready for that ending. My jaw literally fell open😮. It definitely leaves things on a couple cliff hangers. 😳 But I knew I would like this book and I loved it. While I thought it was going to be about three sisters trying to kill each other, we don't quite get there yet. 👇

Tera66 The story is that in every generation queen triplets are born, all with an equal right to the crown. They are separated as small children and on their 16th Birthday they enter a deadly competition for the crown, one must murder her two sisters to become queen. This book more about learning about each sister and the people surrounding her. But there is adventure and drama, so not all backstory and meeting characters.Again, jaw left open. 3y

I hope you will host more down the road.

I really enjoyed the book. I was surprised to see so many reviews panning it and saying it was boring. I didn‘t find it boring at all. I thought there was good character development, the pacing was good, and the twist was interesting.

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. But becoming the Queen Crowned isn‘t just a matter of royal birth; each sister has to fight for it. And it‘s not just a game of win or lose- it‘s life or death. The night the sisters turn sixteen, the battle begins. The last queen standing gets the crown. #GamesCompetitions #TropesInAugust

This series is about three sisters where only one can be Queen so the others must die. It has mysterious islands, magic powers, and great characters. I've loved this series from the beginning and always love going back into her world.

Triplets competing for the crown to the death— what‘s not to love?? My favorite is Kat— she seems like the underdog, and I feel the worst for her as far as what she had to go through growing up. Also f*#% Joseph! Immediately downloaded number two the second I finished! 8/10

My ex‘s kiddo recommended this one; I might not have given it a chance if that hadn‘t been the case (I‘m mostly sticking to fantasy/books in general with queer MCs), but the world-building was well done, and it pulled off third person present tense, which I typically dislike.

It would only cause an #argument. Low magic is frowned upon by those with gifts. As a queen she ought to shun it. She knows that. #QuotsyJan20

It's okay. Pacing is slow, with tedious teenage romantic angst, and the big surprise at the end was something I'd guessed pretty early. But not awful, and I'll read the next. Recommended by my nephew, who has a much higher tolerance than I for teenage romantic angst, bless him.

DuckOfDoom I felt the same way. Saw the twist coming since chapter 1 🙄 5y
swynn @DuckOfDoom For me the big clues were Katherine's rapport with the coral snake, and the fact that two sisters were "talentless". I can't say that I knew as early as chapter 1, but it wasn't long before I wondered how long it would take the sisters to figure out there had been a Sorting Hat Error. 5y

One of my favorite reads in 2019!
The three sisters must fight to the death to become queen. So many things go wrong in this book that you canNOT stop reading! Love it, the magic and matriarchy are different than other books that I've read. Truly enjoyable. 4/5⭐
