Review / comment second read:

The last book I picked up in January 2019 was The Cruel Prince by Holly Black.

I've read this book last year and decided to reread it because of the release of The Wicked King.

I really enjoy this book. Not all of it tho. I struggled with the begining but I've also struggled with this part when I first read it. I just... I hate stories where people are so obviously bullied in front of anyone. Yes, it fits the final story but it still was hard to get through. Onces Jude becomes a spy I got fully captured by the story. All the twists and turns were so good and I just kept on reading and reading.

The story was dark and cruel and Jude sure had to make some dark and hard desicions on ther difficult way to the end of the book. I really like this book and I can't wait to pick up the sequel.
