You can see where I’m going with this.īut while I hated the simpering romance and the irrational idiots that the characters became once they fell in love, I did love the LGBT diversity, and the discussion about the treatment of mentally ill persons. I thought this novel was right up my alley based on its summary, without checking out the reviews… all of which seem to mention that this book is more romance than fantasy. This review is also posted on my tumblr book blog: bookphile.Īnd I suppose my review should end right there but… I’ll be brief. Poet’s secret is delicate, binding the jester to the princess in an unlikely alliance-and kindling a breathless attraction, as alluring as it is forbidden. No one can outwit him, until a Princess from another country comes for a visit and bit by bit starts shaking his world apart and discovers the secret that might get him shackled. He performs for the court, kisses like a scoundrel, and mocks with a silver tongue. He’s young and pretty, a lover of men and women. Brief Summary: In the kingdom of Whimtany, Poet is renowned.
