KYAAA! I love Felia and Macron together, they are so perfect. Just send everyone home please. Next to cute scenes there were some dangerous moments, annoying consorts and maids, Felia is so cool and I love how she never wavers, and I am eager to see how this one is going to go!

As usual, it's enjoyable to watch Felia march through the various situations she is put into. I'm not super in love with the fact that she's so completely ahead, and it would nice to build up the relationship between her and Macron a bit more than this 'love at first sight' kind of thing, particularly on her end seeing as she's heard a lot about him but probably little about how he really is. Oh well - it's a fantasy romance, I can't nitpick.

I think with the first volume I said I just wasn’t sure about continuing so I returned it…well I just rebought it! I’ll probably reread it tomorrow. When this second volume came it it did intrigue me because I did remember thinking about how cute the King in this acts like he’s just A Guy and it’s cute how everyone just accepts her for not being a Society Lady but she’s still kind and badass. When I read this one I just totally fell in love with it. My biggest criticism would be a more simple way to explain the consort selection process but maybe another read of Vol 1 will solve that for me. Maybe I just wasn’t in the mood for fun and which when this originally came out but I am now! The king is a little freak and I love it but I also think it’s so funny how he shows her BLATANT favoritism in front of god and everyone.

This rating was a tough one, but after the last few books it was so refreshing to read that the 3.5 is being rounded up. It was engaging. The story moved and progressed a great deal while letting you further enjoy the characters and the art was point on. This book further cemented the series as an interesting read, with only one drawback...the progression may have been TOO GOOD as I do not see this series going past 7 volumes, but maybe I am wrong. Still...very much a book to enjoy and calm yourself after a day that maybe was less calm.

They’ve just met and they’re already in love. I’ll finish this series (probably) as it’s only short but unless you love a quite insufferably perfect fmc and absolute insta-love, I can’t recommend this series

Felia is showing that she's not a pushover and I'm here for it.

4.25 stars

Really cute. The tea party felt very loosely like a “tea party”, but still an enjoyable fun read.

[RustyNail · Rating 3 out of 5]

It was ok, I mainly read it because it was on comic plus and there was nothing else to read.

Read more graphic novel reviews at The Graphic Library.

The next consort outing is a casual garden tea party. Felia dresses for the mood and the other consorts in their fancy ball gowns make fun of her until the king arrives and he’s similarly dressed casually. Felia brings the same distinct tea leaves she served the king during their first meeting, so he easily discerns her brew in order to reward her with some private time together. After the tea party, jealous consorts retaliate by attacking Felia's residence, but Felia gets help from another consort who has chosen to become Felia's ally. King Macron steals away at any opportunity he gets so that he doesn’t have to wait until the next 31st in a month comes around to see Felia again.

This is very cute and Felia is infectiously bubbly and optimistic. She has an uncanny ability to come out on top and read every social situation correctly. She's constantly prepared, which might be a little too convenient at times, but it's also refreshing to see every scheme of every bully fall flat on its face. She's quick witted as well, so her banter and come-backs are biting and have just the right amount of sting to them that they don't come off as overly rude. This is a cute romance that doesn't have many of the frustrating slow-burn aspects of many manga romances.
