Somebody bring me my dancing shoes! My favorite book of the trilogy winner of ŷ Choice Awards!!!! Cardan and Jude, my favorite flawed, cunning, amazing characters! I think I should reread this trilogy sooner! Yayyyy!!!!
COME ON! My cheeks hurt so bad! This book slapped me so hard! I didn’t see that final twist coming and feel like they pulled out the rug from under me! I’m sitting on the floor and screaming, taking few sips of my Kendall-Jackson Grande Reserve to cool down (it doesn’t work, I’m still so pissed off!) then I’m screaming again , taking longer sip, oh no, the bottle is already empty and the book is finished with a WTH I just read kind of final! What’s gonna happen next, I need my fix urgently! I’m addictive to those malicious, smart couple!
I wanted to call this series GOF (Game of Faeries) because this sequel is sooo much better than the first one and it’s full of twists, surprises, conspiracy theories, betrayals, deceiving tricks.
We have real intelligent, ambitious, rough, bitchy, manipulating, cool, dangerous, merciless heroine ( All hail the Wicked Queen Hey Jude, don’t make it bad, take a sad song and make it better!) and malicious, also delicious, backstabber charming evil hero a.k.a. once upon a time a cruel prince and now he is wicked king Cardan! I hate him! I love him and I love to hate him and I hate to love him kind of complex feelings invaded my mind!
It is impossible not to fall for their chemistry. They’re match made in hell and their negative attributes perfectly fit with the progression of the story.
I’m not gonna talk about twists and turns, giving you spoilers and ruining your excitement. I can only suggest you to READ, READ AND READ THIS BOOK!
By the way: Here are my nominees for traditional 1st (see it only became well known contest, it doesn’t have to be organized for long years) Slapping reads contest:
Locke: I wanted to visualize him as Tom Hardy ( not for my obsession of this charming British uber talented actor, I love his movie “Locke� so my mind already categorized him as book character!) but after the first book and Wicked King, I think I can easily visualize him as Sacha Baron Cohen and I could freely hate and punch him under his belly.
Taryn: Nope, she broke my heart at the first book and I never forgive her, she deserves my mix of a few slaps and twenty punches package.
Nicasia: Oh yes, this notorious, nasty, inglorious, shameless, scum� Okay I already arranged a kickboxing match between Rico Verhoeven ( My famous Dutch kickboxer)and her! He will take care of my revenge plans.
As a summary: My malicious bastard husband hid my third book and I need to torture him to learn where he did put it but he threats me to blurt out the ending. Son of a greatest mother in law (she keeps stealing my wines and my CDs but she reminded me of my future self and I respect her!) gave me a spoiler that ending will be sooo surprising!
So my dearest GR friends, this trilogy is easy, riveting, entertaining, fast pacing page-turner! I enjoyed the second book so much! I loved the characters! I enjoyed my torture scenarios about villanelles and villains! I highly recommend this series!
As soon as I found the secret hiding place (I hope I don’t have to throw my husband from the window before learning the exact place!) I’m so much excited to read the final installment.
