![]() ![]() It is truly such a shame that nobody did because The Cup and the Prince really did have a lot of potential. Leitao desperately needed an editor to sit down with her and really explain why this story wasn’t working as is. Literally everything–and I do mean everything–felt like a missed opportunity. Never once did it feel organic within the actual setting of the novel. I genuinely felt as though I were reading a book about a teenager I could have known growing up. Nevermind the fact that Leitao was very clearly trying to meld modern-day ideas with a fantasy setting but couldn’t quite make it work. Whether we’re talking about world-building, character development, romance, plot, and even the commentary opportunities…the writing hurt it. Literally every single problem The Cup and the Prince has can be summed up with one word: writing.Īnd, unfortunately, this can be applied to pretty much any piece of the writing itself. ![]()
