I truly despise Cruel Prince so much. I felt like I just kept waiting for something to happen. There was one point in the second half of the second book that I really thought things were taking off, then it just sort of stopped moving forward well again in the third book. Such an interesting plot line though.
Encyclopedia or faeries has been on my tbr forever! I need to just do it.
I have never heard of Jonathan Strange and now looking at it I am frightened and intimidated. I will add to my list for probably a few years from now when I feel mentally ready to tackle it.
hehe totally for CP. I read it way back in my YA days, but i remember there being some great descriptors of like costumes and settings plus really angsty tension which is always fun. and 2's cliffhanger was great and then just pfffffft nope.
I truly don't know how you'll like Strange. Maybe one of those slow reads you go back and forth in when you're in the right energy for it.
Jonathan Strange really sets the bar for this whole genre. I haven’t reread it in ages, but I might have to have a go at it soon.
Are The Cruel Prince and A Court of Thorns and Roses or whatever it’s called the same thing? In my mind they are interchangeable, but maybe that’s just because they’re both big booktok books.
I am patiently waiting for my copy of Emily Wilde from the library - really looking forward to reading it!
yeah i read it agessss ago, and i specifically remember when/where I carried that tome around (a lovely pittsburgh xmas)
Cruel Prince and ACOTAR are different and i love that you weren't sure. knowing you as i do, and as your personal book curator, i think these are both skips for you...
yay! i think you'll be charmed by emily, its good fun!
