When you live in lies, denial, and deceit, how do you know what's real and when to stop? 
I did not expect to love these books. I read the first one and was like ok. Then I read Wicked King and had to start Queen of Nothing right after it. The story kept me sucked in not wanting to put it down. The character growth and develoment is so good in these books. Jude has definitely become one of my favorite book characters in that she strong of will and heart.

Such a wonderful ending to a wonderful series - I enjoyed watching Jude grow into her power as Queen and each page is a new twist and turn as the intrigue continues.

ich fand das buch so toll, ich hab keine worte dafür. vom moment, als ich es in die hand genommen hab bis zur allerletzten seite, konnte ich es nicht mehr weg legen. ich hab geweint, gelacht, war schockiert und verwirrt und wollte nicht, dass es endet - gleichzeitig wollte ich aber auch unbedingt wissen, wie alles ausgeht? kurz gesagt: es war ganz genau das high fantasy buch, das ich mir seit monaten gewünscht habe 😭

verglichen mit den teilen davor, war es wirklich so fast paced und noch tausendmal spannender!! die welt ist SO TOLL, die vibes sind unfassbar; man wurde beim lesen richtig reingezogen und es war so toll.

jude my queen 😭 i loved her so much! i dont know if i want to be her or if i want to be with her… my girl ist aber vor allem queen of overthinking; manche leute sind einfach nett und mögen sie und sie schiebt psychose, dass alles ein geheimer plan gegen sie ist?? calm down 

dass sie neben allen bedrohungen gefühlt cardan als ihren größten erzfeind sieht, war so lustig für mich 😂 this boy was so scared of her 😭 er hat 3 bücher lang versucht, sich diese baddie zu klären und es einfach nicht geschafft (weil er maximal lost war) und als es am ende endlich geklappt hat, war er so proud (zurecht)

ich muss in dieser review my man madoc ansprechen; he was the worst dad ever but why was he so hot 😭 habe lowkey für ihn gerootet die ganze zeit, he was so evil but i was into it irgendwie ;
war auch bisschen sad über sein ende, all my man wanted was meaningless blootshed and honestly i can understand 💔


das ende war perfekt, habe nix auszusetzen; niemals hätte ich gedacht, dass ich eine ganze reihe über faerie politics, intrigen und machtspiele so wegatmen würde, aber es ist passiert und ich würde es nicht anders wollen, LOVED IT

📖Queen of Nothing by Holly Black📖

✨Book Review✨

“With you, I am forever undone.”

This is the third book on “The Cruel Prince” series that follows Jude Duarte as the new High Queen of Elfhame. The story is more dangerous and tenacious. The political world was in chaos because of Cardan’s Reign and the prophecy. It was cunning yet I love every detail of it all. The betrayal probably is the most topic of it all. The slow burn sexual tension of Jude and Cardan was so frustrating. I thought there will be more since this was the last one but nothing. I expected so much but I was actually disappointed. But nonetheless, it was still such a great story.
