Mar 05, 2020TEENREVIEWCREW rated this title 5 out of 5 stars
Holly Black is a great author that has written many books. Her novels are based on modern fairy tales, just like The Queen of Nothing, her second most recent book to come out in series. The plot moved fast which keeps the attention of the reader, and the language Black used was captivating and painted a picture clearly. Although I love the spin on fairytales, I found this story a bit confusing. Things were introduced throughout a chapter that would not get explained until almost 3 chapters later.. Overall I liked reading this book despite some challenges. I recommend. 4 Stars-@peink of the Hamilton Public Library's Teen Review Board The Queen of Nothing is the last book in The Folk Of The Air series. This book is the most interesting and exciting of all the books as it has the most plot twists. My favourite part is at the beginning when Jude is still exiled in the mortal lands. You can really see how different she was raised. This book is also the most anticipating. With everything that’s going on, I could hardly put it down. This action-filled book has murder, betrayal, battle and is by far my favourite. The Queen Of Nothing is a great book and has a great ending to the series. I strongly recommend you read this book and the series in general. 5/5 -@Vellichor of the Hamilton Public Library's Teen Review Board My expectations were high for this novel after reading Wicked King and I found myself very disappointed. I found the plot boring in this one, characters were ruined, and it seemed like this novel was rushed. The main thing I disliked was the reason for Jude’s exile. I expected it to be more than a misunderstanding. The biggest disappointment however was the relationship between Jude and Cardan. How did we got from Cardan who love-hates Jude so much to where Cardan wants to play the dotting husband? It was built up to quickly in this novel and I hated it. The ending was also too easy. I didn’t want everything to end up perfectly with no real consequences. Despite my disappoint, I read this book like an addict. I wish Holly put more effort into this one as there was too much missing. Rating – 2.5/5. @Average_Bookworm of the Hamilton Public Library's Teen Review Board
