"Spectacularly emotional and majestically dark, The Third Daughter is a glittering jewel of a novel certain to win over even the most hard-hearted readers."--Morgan Rhodes, New York Times bestselling author of the Falling Kingdoms series

"Political intrigue and emotional intimacy balance on a knife's edge, teetering constantly, precariously between the two in this story of sisterhood, love, and duty. Elodie's journey held me captive in this stunning series starter and I cannot wait to see where she takes me next."--Courtney Gould, author of The Dead and the Dark

"Emotionally gripping and devastating--I held my breath the whole way. Adrienne Tooley deftly weaves prophecy, mystery and intrigue into a deeply intimate story. I ached with Elodie and Sabine, and I utterly fell in love with this exquisite sapphic fantasy. I'm already yearning for the sequel!"--Leslie Vedder, author of The Bone Spindle

"This gripping sapphic fantasy portrays the anti-hero princess taking on the patriarchy. Just when readers think they have this sorted out, a twist ending alludes to a second book in the planned duology. Immersive and intense; hand this royal fantasy to readers of Kendare Blake's "Three Dark Crowns" and Victoria ­Aveyard's "Red Queen" series." --School Library Journal

"The subtle magic and divided loyalties woven throughout build into a propulsive climax. The book asks what we'll do to achieve our goals and how we balance ambition with familial obligations and unexpected desires. Can't wait to see what the sequel brings!"--Bookseller, An Unlikely Story (Plainville, MA)

"This sprawling fantasy features romance and charismatic, take-charge heroines."--Publishers Weekly

Praise for THE THIRD DAUGHTER:
A Paste Magazine Best YA Book of the Year

"The Third Daughter is subtly vicious and achingly tender, with a charming cast and delightful twists to boot. In the queendom of Velle, divinity and royalty clash, romance and intrigue simmer, and betrayals abound--but at the novel's gentle heart is a story about the healing magic of being known. This is Adrienne Tooley at her most powerful."--Allison Saft, New York Times bestselling author of A Far Wilder Magic

"An enchanting YA fantasy in which a princess and an apothecary work together to save a cursed queen - and fall for each other in the process. . . The tenuous alliance . . . blossoms into a riveting star-crossed romance as well as a story of two teenage girls embracing their emotions as a source of strength."--Shelf Awareness
