If you've been following my posts you would have seen that I received the Stolen Heir duology by Holly Black as part of @exclusivebooks and @tandemcollectiveglobal fantasy Readalong. So because this stems from the Folk of the air series I just had to back track a bit and read the series! And boy am I hooked!!! 

At this point in time I want more Faerie land centered books😅. If I was ever judgemental and thinking it's not for my big age then I was proven wrong. I'm definitely the target market.

One thing I picked up about Holly Black's books, betrayal is middle centre!! Expect a betrayal of sorts. Expect deals to be struck and  power to be exchanged.

The Stolen Heir, like her other books in #thefolkoftheairseries, is a thrilling rollercoaster ride through a world of magic and intrigue! It has twists and turns at every corner, and the author sure keeps you on the edge of your seat! Expect suspense, witty dialogue, and unforgettable characters.

"Pretend with me," he whispers.
And then he presses his mouth to mine.
