The Cruel Prince

 The Cruel Prince

By Holly Black

Pages: 370

"Jude was seven 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."

I have mixed feelings about this first book. While I had a hard time putting it down, I also struggled to relate to Jude and understand some of her choices. I also am unsure how the main romance will play out as they are actively trying to kill each other at this point. The twist at the end will either set them up for a romance, or someone's going to be dead by the end of book 2.
