Three Dark Crowns by Kendare Blake

Three Dark Crowns (Three Dark Crowns, #1)

by Kendare Blake

In every generation on the island of Fennbirn, a set of triplets is born--three queens, all equal heirs to the crown and each possessor of a coveted magic. Mirabella is a fierce elemental, able to control storms or flames with the snap of her fingers. Katharine is a poisoner, able to ingest the deadliest poisons without harm. And Arsinoe, a naturalist, can control nature. But becoming the Queen Crowned isn't solely a matter of royal birth. Each sister has to fight for it. And it's not just a game of win or lose ... it's life or death. The night the sisters turn sixteen, the battle begins. The last queen standing gets the crown. --

Wow ! I really liked this book !!
At first I had my doubts if I would like this one, it had a lot of mixed reviews.. But when I got it in one of my book box subscriptions I knew I had to give it a try.

I did not expect I would like all of the Queens.. At first one seemed more likeable than the other.. but the more I got into it, the more I liked all of them. Each one has its pro's and cons, but they all had something that made me want to root for them.

Which gets me to the plot.. I have NO IDEA how this is going to continue, who is going to win (if there will be someone who wins) and I LOVE that !!
I love that there were some plot twists I did not expect, and I can't wait for the second one !!
