" Kiera Cass' most DISAPPOINTING BOOK (The Betrothed series from the author of the SELECTION)"

The speaker provides a critical review of the *The Betrothed* duology, following Hollis Bright's journey from a noblewoman in Coroa to the leader of a unified kingdom. While the plot involves royal romance, political coups, and the overthrow of tyrants, the speaker heavily criticizes the series for poor character development, illogical plot twists, and a superficial allegory for racism.
