No one called her Mud in Silicon Valley. There, she was Mae, a high-powered professional who had left her Kiowa roots behind a decade ago. But a cryptic voice message from her grandfather, James Sawpole, telling her to come home sounds so wrong that she catches the next plane to Oklahoma, where she finds a tribe in disarray. When Mud and her cousin Denny discover her grandfather missing, accused of stealing the valuable Jefferson Peace medal from the tribe museum—and stumble across a body in his work room—Mud has no choice but to search for answers.

Joy Abara knows her place. A commoner from the lowly planet Hali, she lives a simple life—apart from the notoriety that being Kindred to the nobility’s most infamous playboy brings. Duke Felix Hamdi has a plan. He will exasperate his noble family to the point that they agree to let him choose his own future and finally meet his Kindred face-to-face. Then the royal family is assassinated, putting Felix next in line for the throne and accused of the murders. Someone will stop at nothing until he’s dead, which means they’ll target Joy, too.

When Nina Linden is hired to landscape a private island off the New England coast, she sees it as her chance to rebuild her failing business after being cheated by her unscrupulous ex. She never expects that her new client, software mogul Deacon Whitney, would see more in her than just a talented gardener. Deacon has paid top dollar to the crews he’s hired to renovate the desolate Whitney estate - he had to, because the bumps, thumps, and unexplained sightings of ghostly figures in 19th-century dress are driving workers away faster than he can say “Boo.”

Pleasant Surprise!
What an enjoyable read!! This book sucked me right in. I really enjoyed all the historical references while still feeling like a fresh take. I really enjoyed how fleshed out Marie and Louis were and seeing a genuine romance between them. And what a bittersweet ending! Narrated was fantastic!

A dreamy, eerie party in neon Versailles
Dahlin dazzles with a cyberpunk, dystopian retelling of the decadent and terrifying story of Marie Antoinette, from her first entry into the Franc Kingdom when she marries the distant-and-nervous Prince Louis all the way to the beginnings of the Revolution.
The smooth YA first-person prose has a dreamy quality. The ideas butt up against some of the most urgent, violent political movements of our current times. Imagine the story of Marie Antoinette, purportedly the first real victim of a libelous mob, mixed with Instagram and hate forums!
Clueless and PR-focused Marie struggles to navigate the First and Third estates, the political conflicts of mega corporations, the duplicity of AI, the history doomed to repeat itself, and the strange world of the Wastelands, all while being hidden from the truth by firewalls and holograms.
The narrator does an excellent job of speaking the multiple languages laced in occasionally throughout the piece. Though I thought increasing the speed to 1.5x improved the experience for me, she pulls of quite a few fun characters while giving them distinct voices.

boring and cringy
The book was very boring, and cringy at times. The ending was different then I thought it was going to be and it seemed a bit rushed and sloppy. Idk maybe it wasn't my thing but I'm usally into historical fiction especially when it has a twist, but I feel this new context wasn't very well thought out and delivered.
