The Winter Duke
The Winter Duke | Claire Eliza Bartlett
She survived the curse. Now she must survive the throne. All Ekata wants is to stay alive--and the chance to prove herself as a scholar. Once Ekata's brother is finally named heir to the dukedom of Kylma Above, there will be nothing to keep her at home with her murderous family. Not her books or her experiments, not her family's icy castle atop a frozen lake, not even the tantalizingly close Kylma Below, a mesmerizing underwater kingdom that provides her family with magic. But just as escape is within reach, her parents and twelve siblings fall under a strange sleeping sickness, and no one can find a cure. In the space of a single night, Ekata inherits the title of duke, her brother's captivating warrior bride, and ever-encroaching challengers from without--and within--her ministry. Nothing has prepared Ekata for diplomacy, for war, for love...or for a crown she has never wanted. If Kylma Above is to survive, Ekata must seize her family's magic and power. And if Ekata is to survive, she must quickly decide how she will wield them both. The Winter Duke is an enchanted tale of intrigue by Claire Eliza Bartlett, author of the acclaimed feminist fantasy We Rule the Night.

⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️ ◼️ So much intrigue. I didn‘t know what to expect from this one m. The cover drew me in right away and the words on the page kept me going….it was part Anastasia and part something else that I can‘t quite put my mind on. Ekata was forced to be something she never intended but in my mind did what was necessary. She had more of a backbone than anyone including herself expected. Loved every minute of it. #LitsyLove

Now, the reason I dnfed The Winter Duke was because nothing literally happens. It‘s basically a lot of thoughts and sitting around in council meetings and dinners. We know not that many things about Ekata and she is just plain boring. The writing and pacing is done well, but it comes off stiff and boring if that makes sense. I really wanted to enjoy this since I‘ve been looking forward to reading it all year, but this isn‘t for me.
