The Prisoner's Throne by Holly Black

adventurous emotional funny hopeful inspiring medium-paced
  • Plot- or character-driven? A mix
  • Strong character development? Yes
  • Loveable characters? Yes
  • Diverse cast of characters? N/A
  • Flaws of characters a main focus? It's complicated

4.5

I'm so happy Holly Black ended this duology on a strong note! 

Unlike the Stolen Heir, The Prisoner's Throne is told in 3rd person, single POV and follows Oak. I'm not entirely sure how I feel about this choice, but I still enjoyed this book nonetheless.

What did I love about this book? 
πŸ‘‰ Character development, especially Oak
πŸ‘‰ Romance subplot
πŸ‘‰ Angst, mystery, betrayal
πŸ‘‰ Glimpses of Jude & Cardan, who I adore
πŸ‘‰ Satisfying ending that isn't overdone

Where did it fall short?
πŸ‘‰ There are unfortunately some loose ends, in my opinion
