About this listen
"Few audiobooks warrant turning off all distractions, closing one's eyes, and simply listening to the story unfold. Narrator Caitlin Davies creates just that experience as she passionately guides listeners through this gripping story of ambition, love, and desire." (AudioFile Magazine)
Tricia Levenseller, author of Daughter of the Pirate King, is back with an epic YA tale of ambition and love in The Shadows Between Us....
"They’ve never found the body of the first and only boy who broke my heart. And they never will."
Alessandra is tired of being overlooked, but she has a plan to gain power:
- Woo the Shadow King.
- Marry him.
- Kill him and take his kingdom for herself.
No one knows the extent of the freshly crowned Shadow King’s power. Some say he can command the shadows that swirl around him to do his bidding. Others say they speak to him, whispering the thoughts of his enemies. Regardless, Alessandra knows what she deserves, and she’s going to do everything within her power to get it.
But Alessandra’s not the only one trying to kill the king. As attempts on his life are made, she finds herself trying to keep him alive long enough for him to make her his queen - all while struggling not to lose her heart. After all, who better for a Shadow King than a cunning, villainous queen?
A Macmillan Audio production from Feiwel & Friends
"Tricia Levenseller’s latest, The Shadows Between Us, is a decadent and wickedly addictive fantasy, full of schemes and court intrigue, and delightful descriptions of food, which I am always a fan of." (Kendare Blake, number-one New York Times best-selling author of the Three Dark Crowns series)

a nice romcom
I enjoyed this story a lot, I didn't fall head over heels in love with it but it was enjoyable, it's nice for a stand alone book it has the right amount of intrigue, fun characters and romance. Could it have been better? yes, it definetly could have been better, but it was a good one day read_listen. I do recommend it. The narrator was pretty amazing I loved all the voices she maid and the emotion behind her lecture

Great story but I feel like there could have been more romance. The ending was quite surprising. I wasn't expecting that.

Idk
Ehhhhh. This was entertaining enough. I was glad that there were no explicit sex scenes.
I’m not a huge fan of how murder is glorified in this book. I knew it had a remorseless killer from the preview, but I had hoped she would have an arc. She’s not killing for purely virtuous reasons, folks.
The plot was too tidy, and predictable in the sense that you always knew what events would eventually arrive, it was just a matter of when.
The narrator was alright. She did well at the male voices too. She just didn’t stand out.

I liked this book AND I didn’t…
I like the odd anti-hero book…but the main character is so not nice. She’s all about power and getting it however see can. I kinda start to like her just past midway through. It’s just not my favourite.

3/5 - Finally caved because it's been popping up in book recs for a while.
This book has been haunting my recommendations/suggested reads lists on Audible & Kindle for ages. I finally caved, and got the audiobook.
The narrator was superb!
I will say, the book was well-written and captivating, though didn't contain themes I generally enjoy. Fir example, this is a New Adult read - As a woman in my late 30's, a romance between an 18 & 19 year old is just not the vision it once was. I prefer more mature characters who aren't so emotionally dense & prone to silly dramas. I also prefer a bit more spice - and this book has romantic tension, but I'd rate at a 1/5 🌶.
There are a lot of descriptions of palace opulence, rich foods, and social hierarchy within high society. Our main characters here are actually quite morally grey and shallow. There isn't really a whole lot about them to make them likeable. I enjoy a badass character, don't get me wrong, and am okay with some morally challenging situations; however, the behaviors by these characters smacks pettiness & petulance.
While the arc between these characters wraps in the first book, book 2 appears to tell the story of Alessandra's older sister. I'm not really interested in exploring the series further.
3/5 stars for the story with a 4/5 for narration.

A deliciously satisfying listen
I ate this up in a matter of days, and was so pleased with how brilliantly it was performed.
The book is well paced and evenly seasoned with bits of romance, mystery, and adventure.
4/5 reccomend for sure!

Fun and Refreshing
I thoroughly enjoyed this read, right from the very beginning. The inner monologue of the main character is so unique from other YA novels, she’s clever, witty, and so sassy, her thoughts and interactions with the other characters had me grinning constantly. I read some other reviews before starting and there were a couple that suggested there wasn’t much romance in this story and I simply disagree! The romance is constant, it’s a slow burn and if you’re looking for constant steam you won’t find it here, but I enjoyed the romance thoroughly all the same. In my opinion, this book is a perfect palate cleanser between series. It was so refreshing not to be left with a cliffhanger at the end; stand-alone books are so uncommon and I really appreciate the way the story unfolded. It was performed very well, Caitlin has a lovely voice and animates each character so well. I highly recommend!
