Review:
Rosalite is sent to the Largole Empire to negotiate some stuff and ends up taking full advantage of the fourth imperial prince's instant adoration of Aster (Rosalite's bodyguard/lady's maid?). After a successful experience, Rosalite heads back home (with a new member of her household in tow, who she plans to use as a living printer/copier), only to find herself neck deep in what are essentially personnel problems: Jack Brown runs away due to issues with his sister, Glen is stressed and frustrated to the point where he actually plans to make some demands, and Rosalite's father is mad because she's willingly calling Sage Oswald "papa."
The publisher's description for this implies that there will be more tension and racing against the clock than there actually is. Glen's mother is barely in this, and Rosalite has hardly a thought to spare for the supposed apocalypse on the horizon.
Hey, I finally reviewed one of these volumes soon after finishing it! Not that it made much of a difference. I can remember particular events better, but the overarching story, whatever it is at this point, is still super foggy in my mind.
The brief period from Jack Brown's POV was nice and all, except that his POV didn't feel all that different from Rosalite's, beyond him having a few thoughts about Rosalite's actions and those around her that didn't match up with Rosalite's own feelings.
I really need to stop reading this series. I have so many better things to read.
