A review by maple_dove
The Cruel Prince by Holly Black

dark tense slow-paced
  • Plot- or character-driven? A mix
  • Strong character development? Yes
  • Loveable characters? Yes
  • Diverse cast of characters? Yes
  • Flaws of characters a main focus? Yes

4.5

I read this book in two days.

Edit: Okay. The Folk of the Air is much much more about Jude's journey and development than it is about romance. If you dive into The Cruel Prince (Folk of the Air #1) expecting mostly romance, you will be disappointed. There's more romance in the other two books, but it's still more about Jude's journey and development than romance.
