The Cruel Prince

When Jude's mother was pregnant, she ran from faerie to hide in the human world. Ten years later, her husband took his revenge and stole not only his fey child, but the human twins as well. Taken from her murder parents, Jude and her sisters learn to survive in the treacherous world of faerie without being held under enchantment. Every day Jude must endure the cruelty of the fey and constantly be reminded of her human mortality. All she wants is a place in court and the comfort of safety. But to gain that protection, she will have to dive deeper into the danger to earn her keep.

Jude just didn't cut it for me as a main character. I was surprised how little character building there was to her. Her past is literally glossed over in bullet points for a chapter. Seriously? I hate to say it... lazy writing. Something I didn't think I would see from Holly Black.

Not a series I will continue. The plot dragged on and I could care less about the sub plots.
