The Wicked King by Holly Black

adventurous emotional mysterious tense medium-paced
  • Plot- or character-driven? A mix
  • Strong character development? It's complicated
  • Loveable characters? It's complicated
  • Diverse cast of characters? Yes
  • Flaws of characters a main focus? It's complicated

5.0

I fell in love with this book because it’s written in such a way that keeps your attention also it doesn’t have a lot of romance in it but I believe that is an advantage cause there’s such a strong tension between Jude and cardan that it’s more than enough and the plot twist was everythingggg



Spoilers!!!

OH MY GOD when he “laughed with them” I wanted to actually kill him but other than that it was really cute and hot that cardan in totally head over heals for Jude and that he asks her to marry him!! (And then exiles her for funsies but I’ll ignore that) Also the mystery and betrayal is really breathtaking in this book
