The Wicked King, by Holly Black

adventurous tense medium-paced
  • Plot- or character-driven? Plot
  • Strong character development? No
  • Loveable characters? No
  • Diverse cast of characters? It's complicated
  • Flaws of characters a main focus? Yes

3.5

If you like plot-heavy fantasy you will love this, if you enjoy character development or romance you will not....   
SpoilerThe ending was disappointing, with very little character development for Cardan, I thought he had changed and then turns around to fuck her over again, i am also annoyed at Jude's attitude overall by the end
