Review
Cruel prince is another completely different world which cost me a lot to adapt but it was amazing to read.
The first half was okay, it was a lot of context, almost through the half I was amazed by all the twists that they were beginning to show up, I died on the last chapter, I did not see that coming. Actually I did not expect anything about the plot of this book, it really surprised me.
I really liked Holly Black writing, but I have to say that the romance was kept shorter than I expected, almost on second plane. That kinda disappoint me, but I think they will get better on the next books!
The characters were good, they are not that complex yet, but somehow I think I can understand them a little.
Jude’s supposed to be the main character and the hero of the story but I think she’s more like a villain, with her brilliant and wicked mind. After all, she wants power.
I’ll start the second book on thursday, I CAN’T WAIT!!!
ALSO WHERE ARE ALL THE MORTAL INSTRUMENTS FANS???
I have the theory that this book is connected to cassandra clare’s world, because of the familiar words and context of the fairies world. Like for example, “glamour” “the sight” “fairies can’t lie” “Seelie court”, among others
