'Holly Black is the Faerie Queen' - Victoria Aveyard
I have heard that for mortals, the feeling of falling in love is very like the feeling of fear.
Jude has tricked Cardan onto the throne, binding him to her for a year and a day. But the new High King does everything in his power to humiliate and undermine her, even as his fascination with her remains undimmed. Meanwhile, a traitor in the court is scheming against her. Jude must fight for her life and the lives of those she loves, all while battling her own complicated feelings for Cardan. Now a year and a day seems like no time at all . . .

Bumped this one up half a star just for the ending! 😲. This one was a bit too political for me, more so than The Cruel Prince which I prefer overall ...the plot is good, but not my preferred style of fantasy. I'll continue the series though, I need to know what happens next!For the road trip

Jag älskar hur oförutsägbar denna bok är! Trots att jag inte ville att boken skulle sluta som den gjorde, älskade jag allt med boken! Det enda jag blir frustrerad över är att ett visst 'par' inte har blivit tillsammans än (kryptiskt men vill inte spoila).For the book club

Denna boken hade mycket fokus politik till skillnad från första att man ibland hade svårt att försätta den, men var definitivt värt att ta sig igenom den till de sista kapitlernaFor the book club

- Herregud for en berg og dalbane av følelser når man hører eller leser denne boken. Jeg har ledd og grått. Levd sammen med fairy og vært med på alle opplevelsene i boken.
