Diamond City
Ratings2
Average rating4.5
Just wrapped up "Diamond City," and I can’t help but share my thoughts! Sage, our pizza-loving heroine, will do anything for a ticket to Prince Louis’ birthday party—whether it's taking down bad guys or leaping off skyscrapers. Her fearless spirit and quick wit made me instantly connect with her.
Things get complicated when her nephew sells her out to the royal family, who reveal themselves to be much more cunning than expected. Instead of the typical royal agenda, they blackmail Sage into confronting a flamboyant warlord whose forces are invading Diamond City. The plot thickens when Sage discovers that the royals are using citizens as test subjects in dangerous experiments while the warlord fights to protect them. This twist added a compelling moral dilemma that kept me on my toes!
I found Sage's struggle between a charming yet tyrannical warlord and a bubbly prince to be incredibly engaging. The way she grapples with her desire for a normal life versus her warrior past speaks to anyone who's faced tough choices. Cole’s writing is filled with humor and action, making every moment feel alive.
What really stood out to me was the exploration of love and loyalty. Sage’s longing for companionship amidst the chaos made her relatable, and I appreciated her inner conflict about what she truly wants. And can we talk about the pizza? It adds such a relatable touch to her character!
"Diamond City" is a thrilling blend of action, adventure, and unexpected twists. If you’re seeking a unique fantasy filled with strong characters and moral complexities, this book is definitely worth the read! 🍕💫

Author: Astrid Cole
Format : Digital – Apple Books
Star Rating: ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️
I don’t usually read sci-fi fantasy romance books but this book was pretty entertaining. Took me a second to get in the loop but I got there and immediately took a liking to Sage and then Damian came along and I was so for it. I shipped them immediately. This was definitely a fun read for me with romance, smut, action, and pizza. If you’re into sci-fi this is definitely the book for you.
