Blurb from Goodreads:
In a world where women have no rights, sisters Serina and Nomi face
two very different fates: one in the palace, the other on an island prison
where women must fight to survive.
Serina has spent her whole life preparing to become a Grace - selected
to stand by the heir to the throne as a shining example of the perfect
woman.
But her headstrong and rebellious younger sister has a dangerous
secret, and one wrong move could cost both sisters everything.
Can Serina fight? And will Nomi win?
My Review:
*I received an ARC of this book in exchange for an honest review.

Sisters Serina and Nomi live in a land where women have no rights.
The two of them are very different - composed and graceful, Serina
has spent her life training to become a Grace, hoping to be chosen by
the Heir for a life in the palace where she might become the mother
of the next Heir. Stubborn and headstrong, Nomi will be Serina's
handmaiden.
But Nomi has a secret. One that might change the sisters' lives
forever if it is discovered.
My favourite part of Grace and Fury was definitely the two protagonists,
Serina and Nomi. They were very different but they loved each other a lot.
It was interesting to read as they were put in situations that were outside
their comfort zones and to see how they reacted.
The plot was pretty predictable but the setting was interesting. It was scary
to imagine a world where women had no power and weren't even allowed
to read.
The writing style was easy to follow.
At the moment I'm not sure if I'll read the sequel but I am interested to see
what happens in the sequel.
I am disappointed that I didn't enjoy this more as the blurb really intrigued
me.
Overall this was an enjoyable, but predictable read.
