Review: The Queen of Nothing

The Queen of Nothing The Queen of Nothing by Holly Black
My rating: 5 of 5 stars

Jude is absolutely a Queen. And Cardan deserves the world. I mean it!

I want to take all my words back, whatever I said to Cardan in the first book. I never expected and imagined his part has to play such a big role to decide the fate of the Faerie world. His character, the plot develops in such a better way. I can see the entire motive behind keeping his character so low-key, giving him so less priority, Holly Black you played it well.
It may appear as forced romance between Jude and Cardan but it is NOT. Both of them were so anxious to show their vulnerable side in front of each other, afraid to getting their heart shattered in this cruel world.

I didn't the old told prophecy about the Blood Crown to take such a bad turn, in the history of Faerie World. But it did. It was so scary as well as traumatising.

The ending is so "charming". My characters are happy. I don't want anything else :P

Review: The Shadows Between Us

The Shadows Between Us by Tricia Levenseller My rating: 3 of 5 stars View all my reviews This is the story of a girl who doesn't want a prince charming or a king. She wants to be the queen and a kingdom to rule! The Shadows Between Us is a Slytherin Romance, tracing our morally dark protagonists Alessandra and The Shadow King, Kallias, and their journey to fall in love. Let's start with something beautiful. “They've never found the body of the first and only boy who broke my heart. And they never will.” For something claiming to be dark and morbid, this is pretty light. There are several areas of the book that is being touched from the surface and left as it is. For instance, our central characters, Alessandra and Kallias. Both of them are shown as dark & morally grey, but there is no justification given behind their behavior, their psychology. They are being simply shown it's the way both of them are. Coupled with t...

Review: Queen of Air and Darkness

Queen of Air and Darkness by Cassandra Clare My rating: 5 of 5 stars The amount of pain this book has driven me through is immersive!!! Especially in the first part of the book. Where everything started falling apart, and later in the second part things started to get a little better, it started getting more and more worse. Out of 900 pages, only the last 100 pages were kind of relief and happy-happy moment, yet you are always scared because Cassie can do literally anything in the last 10 pages and be like "Oh I don't think it is such a big deal, ykr I can do worse?!" Also, the epilogue. WHAT THE HELL WAS THAT?! I want an explanation of what is going to happen. This Jace from parallel dimension Thule, he's after Clary now. Gosh. My head is already breaking. There were many moments in this book, which made me sob like a maniac. The starting itself was so chaotic, with the death of Robert Lightwood, Livia Blackthorn. During the funera...

Review: City of Ashes

City of Ashes by Cassandra Clare My rating: 5 of 5 stars View all my reviews The second book in the Mortal Instruments series begins where the Downworlder's kids were being attacked in the city and the blood is drained out of them. Dealing with their complex sibling relationship, both Jace and Clary are stuck in the complexities of their life, where Jocelyn is still in the hospital brain-dead and Marsyn Lightwood starts throwing shade on Jace for being Valentine's son. This complex the situation with the Inquisitor's arrival in the Institute who accuses Jace of involving in Valentine's plan. The plot starts to develop so well in the City of Ashes that refuses to reader to drop the plan of not completing the series. The story is gripping in the first 20 pages itself where the readers come across the inevitable dilemmas of both the protagonists. Later, the plot thickens in an adventurous manner. It is indeed very conspirin...
