The Cruel Prince | Holly Black

Pickpick

This book has all the things I ❤️ , and it was bloody marvelous. Emphasis on bloody! Set in the land of Faerie, where the most beautiful objects can kill a human in no time. The political intrigue makes American politics look like a play yard sandbox. Jude is an interesting and complex heroine. My only gripe is the hint of “he‘s so mean because he likes her” trope, but it‘s more complicated than that, so I could overlook it. #MountTBR

alisiakae This filled a LOT of prompts. #BBRC #seriesstarter #teenangst; #MarchUnshelfie book 1/3, #Booked2020 #CoverCrush, & because of the political mystery and intrigue in this fantasy world I count it for #Twins #mandmreadingchallenge (Jude has a twin sister Taryn). Also #pop20 author with flora or fauna in name. @LibrarianRyan @BarbaraTheBibliophage @Cinfhen @Clwojick 5y

alisiakae @reader_in_april I love it! So many morally ambiguous characters, and she does such a great job of creating a dark Faerie world, my favorite kind. 5y
