Sibylline
Young adult · ages 14–18 · 820L · 2026
Solid urban-fantasy premise with de la Cruz's familiar competence, but the pacing stumbles in the middle and the romantic subplot overshadows the magic-system worldbuilding.
The Queen's Assassin
Young adult · ages 14–18 · 850L · 2020
A solid YA fantasy with a compelling female assassin protagonist and genuine moral stakes, though the dual timeline structure and romance subplot occasionally dilute the central conflict.
