The Wicked King, by Holly Black

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

3.75

The book is an easy read, there were moments which made me feel emotions of shock, blush and smile. 

However, the descriptive writing sometimes threw my interest off..I also felt that something was missing..like a spark which was there in the first book.
