Not me being so excited for this book I got to the store before they even stocked the shelf. Anyway it’s a lovely day to read outside. I won’t be posting spoilers or reactions for a couple weeks though.

Thanks to @epicreads for providing me with a finished copy in exchange for an honest review
✩🫧🌸Review:
The stakes continue to heighten as Mafi slowly builds on her explosive series.
“All This Twisted Glory” picks up where the second installment leaves off with Alizeh searching for ways to fulfill her destiny as the heir to the Jinn throne. Cyrus, the ruler of Tulan, has offered his kingdom to her with one stipulation: she has to marry him and when time comes, take his life. His past is soaked in blood, so killing him should be easy, but the more she learns about him, the harder it is for her to believe he is the monster he makes himself out to be. What’s more, Prince Kamran arrives in Tulan ready to exact his revenge and he makes her an offer she can’t ignore.
With Kamran in Tulan, Alizeh’s two love interests are at odds. She finds herself being pulled in two different directions, unsure whether she should follow her heart or do what’s best for her people. Her inner conflict is so well done and Mafi doesn’t reveal who Alizeh will end up with until the very end, which kept me on my toes.
The addition of Cyrus’ point-of-view in this book allows readers to gain more insight into his character. While we are still left in the dark about the deal he made with Ibees, details about his past are slowly made known that shed light on the person he might have been if it weren’t for the devil’s intervention. His old hopes, dreams, and ambitions in addition to the torture he endures at Iblees’ hand add depth to his character and make him more sympathetic. The reader also gets to see just how deeply he feels for Alizeh and how tormented he is by Kamran’s interactions with her.
Because Mafi spent a lot of time establishing the country of Tulan in “These Infinite Threads”, I expected more action in this book. In actuality, this was not the case. The majority of the book focuses on the palpable tension between Karman, Cyrus, and Alizeh instead of larger conflicts like the war between Tulan and Ardunia as well as the Jinn prophecy Alizeh must fulfill. The killer cliffhanger, however, proves that a lot is in store for book 4 and I cannot wait to see what Mafi has up her sleeves!

Wait... Are there really people who think Kamran can end up with Alizeh ?! As a reminder, Tahereh Mafi made it clear that her new saga (yes because there will be more than three volumes) was on the trope of enemies to lovers ! Kamran does not fit this definition. But Cyrus does. So why the hell is there still a debate about who Alizeh will end up with ?! No hate for Kamran, I like his character. But he is definitely not the man who will end up with Alizeh...
