Recensioner
Visa allaI really enjoyed this book. BUT, I felt like there was a very slow beginning, and I wasn't really as captivated as I was with The Wicked King and The Queen of Nothing, but nevertheless I think it is a really good book. 4.5 stars (I took off the points because I wasn't really into it).
🍷4.5 stars👑When I first heard of The Cruel Prince, I actually DNF'ed it, because I thought it was romance main plot (typical rookie mistake). I read about Cardan and his little gang of friends and I thought "absolutely not?? what the heck??" but I was SO WRONG. Picking up this book again, I thought I would have to grit my teeth and push through it because everyone else hates this book -- and I did too, at some point. And now, look at how far I've come -- from a DNF to a five-star read.🫰Obviously the characters! Jude is such a badass FMC and she is everything I aspire to be -- strong, independent but still has kindness and love in her heart. I started off not liking Cardan but uh, clearly that was a mistake too -- I just love how sarcastic and arrogant he is. And HM to Vivi, Oak and the Roach, who are my favourite side characters.🫰The relationships between the characters. I know romance is just a subplot, but it was so well done -- and also, the friendships and sisterhood as well. Shout out to Chapter 14 and 26.👍The plot itself -- "Fae politics" sounded so boring to me, but it was actually extremely interesting. I was hooked and kept craving more.👎The ending was a tiny bit underwhelming. I expected a bigger plot twist and cliffhanger because I got confused and thought that the ending was part of their plan. Might've been my fault, but still...
