The Cruel Prince: ★★★★
The Wicked King: ★★★★★

I was nervous going into the finale of this series because I'd heard such mixed things about it. Some people say it's fantastic, others say it completely ruined the series for them. I'm so, so glad I'm on the side that loved it!

What a wild ride! I had so much fun with this entire series, I loved every second of it. These books are filled with so many of my favourite tropes and they were all done so well. I loved the characters, the plot twists, the writing, and most of all the world. Holly Black really is the true Queen of Faerie, long may she reign

Queen of Nothing is admittedly my least favourite book in the series, but I still really enjoyed it. I definitely prefer the sinister hatred, trickery, and scheming that the first two books have. Those are all present here, but they kind of took a backseat to make room for wrapping up the plot. Which isn't necessarily a bad thing, I totally see that it was necessary, but I did miss that element quite a bit as it's my favourite thing about these books. But that's really the only critique that I have. This book was so entertaining and a fantastic conclusion to this story. So glad that I finally got around to reading these!
