The Cruel Prince by Holly Black

  • Twitter summary: Jude desperately wants to find her place in the Faerie world so she does everything from lying to committing murder to stealing the crown.
  • The good: I was surprised by the turn in events in Jude’s relationships with both of her sisters — I’m curious to read how they will continue to evolve. Speaking of relationships, I am eating up the visible tension between Jude and Cardan.
  • The bad: It was a bit difficult to follow the plot at times (don’t read while distracted!) and had to power through details that did not capture my attention.
  • Favourite character: I can’t say that I have a favourite right now… toss up between Jude and Cardan at the moment.
  • Recommendation: Yes, I am intrigued enough to read Book 2.
  • Overall rating: 3/5 stolen crowns
