AAAAAAH
IM NOT CRYING YOURE CRYING
FANGIRLINGG TIMMME (5th reread)
Oh my god
The cover
The plot
The characters
The twists
The betrayals
JURDAN
*chefs kiss*
So remember we left Jude in the mortal world so that’s where the book starts of
But the mortal world is boring so when Taryn turns up with a favour to ask, Jude jumps at the chance to go back
And then she gets about 3 minutes with Cardan before Madoc kidnaps her.
So then she’s in Madoc’s camp and who turns up to rescue her??
CARDAN THATS WHO
YAAAAAAAAS
And then we get some top-notch Jurdan time..
AND THEN CARDAN TURNS INTO A SNAKE
but we get him back after a bit so it’s ok!!!
Anyway ummm so characters:
Jude: in this book I think Jude gets even better like just as ruthless and scheming but also she (finally) admits her feelings for Cardan and the softer(ish) side of her is really nice to see
Cardan: what can I say but my adoration for him grows every time I read this book also his cinnamon roll side comes out more in this book!
Quotes:
“By you, I am forever undone.�
squeals Cardan has all the best lines
“I thought once you hated me, I could go back to hating you. But I didn’t. And I felt so stupid.
I thought I would get my heart broken. I thought it was a weakness that you would use against me. But then you saved me from the Undersea when it would have been much more convenient to just let me rot. After that, I started to hope my feelings were returned. But then there was the exile- I hid a lot, I guess. I thought if I didn’t, if I let myself love you, I would burn up like a match. Like the whole matchbook.�
long but AMAZING GOD I LOVE THEM SO MUCH
“It was terrifying, watching you fall. I mean, you’re generally terrifying, but I am unused to fearing for you.�
my squashy little babies
“I don’t know how to break the curse, if I could, do you think I would still be at this stupid banquet? Tell me what I must slay, what I must steal, tell me the riddle I must solve or the hag I must trick. Only tell me the way, and I will do it, no matter the danger, no matter the hardship, no matter the cost.�
I’m crying aaaaaah
“I spent much of my life guarding my heart. I guarded it so well that I could behave as though I didn’t have one at all. Even now, it is a shabby, worm-eaten, and scabrous thing. But it is yours.�
ohhhhhhh my god
“He’s every bit as terrifying as any serpent.
I don’t care. I run into his arms.�
i swear they will be the death of me
songs:
Queen of Nothing - Elliott Lee
Without me - Halsey
Gasoline - Gio Navas
Make me king - the Haunt
The king and queen of gasoline - Hot Milk
