Reviews with content warning for Animal death - The Queen of Nothing

This was an amazing ending of the folk of the air series! I read it in like 2/3 days because I could not put it down😍 At first I was kind of disappointed, it felt like I was reading the wicked king all over again. Jude was in pain and agony, court problems, scheming schemes, Cardan is a dick, why can’t they confess their love to each other, more scheming.
But then it just kept getting better and better. Omg I loooove this book it was a great reading experience and I could kill to read I again for the first time.

Spoiler

I love the character development both Jude and Cardan has done. I nearly started crying when Cardan told Jude that he loved her. But I think that Black focused too much on scheming and too little on Jude and Cardan. Yes they got each other in the end and that was truly beautiful and heartwarming but that was like the 3 last pages. And they had their little sex scene in the middle but other than that it was not much of them tightened. I would like a bit more romantic stuff etc. ONE QUESTION IS JUDE GOING TO DIE OF OLD AGE AND CARDAN IS JUST LEFT ALONE???? FOR ETERNITY??? PLS 🤟😞
I loved how it was not sure how the book would end, it was hell believe me, but I was always asking myself if Cardan would be a serpent forever or if he would die or if he would be tamed or something else. It was nerve racking. I also loved the little side story about Heather and Vivi, I was kind of invested.
HOLLY BLACK THANK YOU FOR GIVING JUDE A BREAK IN THE END FINALLY SHE DESERVED THAT SOOO MUCH🥲🥲 JUDE HAS BEEN THROUGH SO MUCH IT HURTS THINKING ABOUT. I HOPE SHE CAN REST FOR A BIT NOW.

I am truly heartbroken that this series is over. It had its ups and downs but in conclusion it was really good. The last book is the best one, I think. Maybe the first. - I can’t decide. No queen of nothing is the best, maybe, I love it so much. Easy 5/5 I’m gonna reread it soon.

it was sooo good, i will perish jude and cardan's love forever and ever <3. A little advice, reading the last 100 pages on the train may not be the best idea if you don't want people looking at you funny while you cry.

I still really liked this book. No major downsides! It definitely could have been longer. This series really got me into political fantasy. As a final statement: I hope they all get some SERIOUS therapy after this
