Week 4 Review: Thronebreakers

From Goodreads:
Perfect for fans of Aurora Rising, The Hunger Games, and Three Dark Crowns, this electrifying duology closer is jam-packed with tension and thrills that will hook readers from its first page.

Alyssa Farshot never wanted to rule the empire. But to honor her uncle's dying wish, she participated in the crownchase, a race across the empire's 1,001 planets to find the royal seal and win the throne. Alyssa tried to help her friend, Coy, win the crownchase, but just as victory was within their grasp, Edgar Voles killed Coy—and claimed the seal for himself.

Broken-hearted over her friend's death, Alyssa is hell-bent on revenge. But Edgar is well protected in the kingship. Alyssa will have to rally rivals, friends, and foes from across the empire to take him down and change the course of the galaxy.

My Review:
This was a really great read! I really enjoyed the first book, but I was a bit anxious going into this one, because the first was an adventure for a prize, and this one was more of a revenge/justice story, a rebellion, and that just had me a bit worried, though I didn't need to! 

One thing that I really loved about this book is were got these messages that her uncle had written, of the past of the Empire, of why he never named Alyssa his successor, why he had a Crownchase to pick the next person, so that was really great to learn! 

It's almost like this book is split into two parts-trying to take down Edgar, and then trying to take down the hiding enemy. Which sucks for Alyssa, because things were going right, once they found the evidence, and then they went drastically wrong! 

Enkindler Wythe was a pretty awful figure in the first book, but its in this book that his evil shines. His religion is pretty awful, and the actions that they undertook...yeah, it was really satisfying when he was taken down! That was such a great ending, and the start of a new government system! 

Loved reading this book, and I can't wait to see what Rebecca Coffindaffer writes next!
