The Cruel Prince by Holly Black

By #1 New York Times bestselling author Holly Black, the first book in a stunning new series about a mortal girl who finds herself caught in a web of royal faerie intrigue.
This Barnes & Noble exclusive edition features a special jacket and bonus story starring fan-favorites Kaye and Roiben of the bestselling Tithe series, allowing readers to witness the pivotal coronation scene from an alternate point of view.

Of course I want to be like them. They're beautiful as blades forged in some divine fire. They will live forever.

And Cardan is even more beautiful than the rest. I hate him more than all the others. I hate him so much that sometimes when I look at him, I can hardly breathe.

Jude was seven years old when her parents were murdered and she and her two sisters were stolen away to live in the treacherous High Court of Faerie. Ten years later, Jude wants nothing more than to belong there, despite her mortality. But many of the fey despise humans. Especially Prince Cardan, the youngest and wickedest son of the High King.

To win a place at the Court, she must defy him--and face the consequences.

In doing so, she becomes embroiled in palace intrigues and deceptions, discovering her own capacity for bloodshed. But as civil war threatens to drown the Courts of Faerie in violence, Jude will need to risk her life in a dangerous alliance to save her sisters, and Faerie itself. @goodreads 














Fairyloot Copy =)



Owlcrate copy =)




And I also have the BN black copy =D 

Holy sh*t balls! I love it =)

I love Jude! She's my new bad to the bone girl! She gets dragged away with her two sisters to Faerie by the man that killed her parents. Lives in Faerie most of her life. Is training to fight and can handle a sword very well. She wants to be a Knight but she turns into so many other things.

She takes bullying every day and doesn't let them get her down. You go girl!

She plots and plans and gets it done!!!!! Well, this is only the first book. We have to see how she can handle it all in the next book/s.

I love some of the side characters in this book; The Bomb, Roach, The Ghost. I love Bomb the most. She's awesome, hence her nickname.

We have little Oak who is the little brother. Madoc who is an off and on jerk. Oriana who is an off and on jerk. Prince Dain who I never trusted to begin with and Locke who I never trusted to begin with either.

Prince Cardan is a jerk face too. But, he has his reasons. There are more peeps -er-faeries that are jerks in the book but it's pretty common. Lol

Anyhoo, I loved it and I'm glad because I own 3 copies of the book in all the beautiful covers =D


Happy Reading!
