Great
I loved this book I think it is suitable for ages 11 and up. The idea of the book is a bit creepy but the story line keeps you saying just one more page.

So Good!!
I LOVED this book! It is a little slow at the beginning and the middle, so if you like fast-paced stories then this one might not be for you. It's also a bit creepy and violent, so if you're not good with things like that you might want to avoid this one. I love that this book has a female-centric cast and takes place in a matriarchal society. The magic system is also very well done and explained thoroughly. There are a bunch of interesting and fun characters, though it may seem overwhelming at times with how many there are. Each sister has so much personality, and they each have a sister or aunt-like companion who is equally as interesting. Overall, this was a great book, if a little bit slow at first.

Sexy, violent, still brilliant.
Sex: 1 sex scene where Mirabella has to get naked to warm a freezing boy involved in a hurricane. When he wakes up, they kiss, touch each other ( doesn't say where) moaning and the girl wraps her legs around him. Making out and one foreplay scene where it is implied they get naked.
Language: One 'bas-ard'
Violence: Talk about loops of entrails after gory bear attack. Someone gets clawed by a bear and the description is pretty disturbing. Execution-Katharine is forced to kill someone she doesn't want to kill. Someone is said to have spasmed so hard they broke all their bones.
Wine is drink
Vary dark. 14+ For sexuality, and gore.

One of My Favorites
There's just so much to love. The atmospheres that are so different but they intertwine so perfectly, and it really brings the whole thing to life. And the characters. I love them all. This book really just hit the nail on the head. I can't criticize. *Chefs kiss*

Exciting, intense, and mature
This is an amazing book for mature teens who will be able to handle the content. I loved this book because of the exciting premise. It's a bit slow but something you should definitely read if you are okay reading books that are a little slow. This is a must read for fans of The Hunger Games, Matched, and if you are a veteran to dark, YA fantasies. This is an amazing book and I can't wait to read the sequel, One Dark Throne and Queens Of Fennbirn.

Speechless.
This is a action-packed, violence-smeared, enticing book. Wow. There are a lot of torturous details the author packs in, not recommended for kids under 13. However, the story is well-paced, the characters are well made and described, and the whole story seems to seep out of the pages. Amazing work.

Three Dark Crowns is a fascinating, dark fantasy novel. The story is centered around three sisters. Only one can ultimately rule, and they must kill each other for that honor. Theres a fair amount of violence, but mostly undescribed. There are also a couple fade out sex scenes. Several underage characters drinks alocohol. Overall the book was well written and gripping. Its a little hard to get into at first but it gets better as you continue to read.

I think that mature 11 year olds and 12+ would like this, it isnt too mature, but i dont recomend anyone under 11 to read it because of violence, drinking, swearing, ect. it was still a great read though!

Read This Book!!
This book was sooo good. At the start I was confused by what was happening. But as it went on it made LOTs of sense, take it from me and trust me, I finish a book a day. And this book I wanted to read it over and over. (I am begging my friend to let me borrow the second)

Great!
Its an AMAZING book for teens, but I think that it is a little violent for littler kids and has some mature themes (Which are fine if you are 12+)
I recommend 100%
