I liked Cruel Prince the best out of the entire trilogy but honestly I DNF after the start of the third book. I honestly kind of hated Jude as a character after the end of Cruel Prince and I completely couldn’t stand her by the time I finished wicked king. I do love Cardan however he’s never done anything wrong ever. If you want to read a book about faerie politics then you might like this more than I did but it’s really marketed like a romance enemies to lovers when there’s really only like four romantic scenes in the entire series.
