badgalrere 's review for:

The Queen of Nothing by Holly Black
3.75
adventurous dark emotional mysterious fast-paced
Plot or Character Driven: A mix
Strong character development: No
Loveable characters: Yes
Diverse cast of characters: Yes
Flaws of characters a main focus: Complicated

A few occasions in which there could have been gone into  more detail
for example: Jude did not get to read the letters and we do not see how Orlagh reacts to her being High Queen. I also thought Oriana and Randalin had opportunities to grow as characters when they showed Jude sympathy, yet they returned to being cold towards her. What I find quite disappointing was how Jude seemed to have less power after Cardans return, not caused by him taking it from her, but by her seeking his approval. I thought after her winning the battle and handling the power well she would have felt empowered and would have spoken up for herself at the coronation, instead Cardan silenced Randalin

Enjoyable series
