ms holly black never disappoints

devoured this and got me out of a terrible book slump

now i see what people meant about jude and cardan being pissed at wren

as much as i'm on board for a villain arc, i fear wren may be in trouble and also that perhaps the betrayal was not as big as it was made to seem by the prisoners throne summary BUT i understand why she was pissed and did what she did. i support woman's wrongs

It‘s so fun to be back at Elfhame! I missed Jude and Cardan A LOT but Suren is such a badass too and Oak is also very morally grey, so their story is also interesting and twisty. I can‘t say it compares to the original trilogy but I‘ll start The Prisoner‘s Throne right away because that ending was crazzyyy

DNF at 50%. Got bored, was not interested in the slightest.

This is more like a 2.5 ⭐️ for me.
I just think I’m too old to really appreciate some YA fantasy at this point.

Si tengo que dar una recomendación a cualquiera que vaya a leer este libro: No esperes otro príncipe cruel. 

Por supuesto, Holly Black vuelve a hacer su magia y ha creado un mundo de hadas crueles, bellas y engañosas. Volver a ver a algunos de los personajes y visitar lugares que se mencionan en la trilogía anterior es entretenido en si mismo. Igual que ver cómo las hadas tejen toda una red de medias verdades y acertijos para ocultar la verdad. Sin embargo, no sé si termino de conectar con la protagonista ni con su turbulenta relación con Oak. Está bien, es entretenido y se lee en nada pero estoy casi segura que si fuera el estilo de otra autora y, sobretodo, si fuera otro mundo no le daría 4,5 estrellas. Pero es lo que tiene la nostalgia.

this was pretty good! i feel like oak kinda lacked a personality which was a little disappointing, and the beginning definitely was a little slow, but the plot twists were nice and it picked up towards the end
