It was my first book about faerie world and the author did not provide enough world setup so first book was all over the place with names just thrown towards the reader without much explanation. That is one weak point that people ignore.

^ YES. guys don’t go into it expecting a ton of romance like me

i think because you read mostly romance you was waiting for the romance in the 1st book but its not really a romance its more all about the fantasy which is why i loved it soooo much because i love fantasy so i think i appreciated the fantasy more so that when the romance got therre it was more of a shock. i love ur videos btw

I feel like we as fans of this book need to tell more people that romance is the sub-plot 😭 I came in, full on expecting an enemies to lovers and then I was getting mostly politics and I actually ADORED it. But at first, I was a bit on the cautious side. I was thinking "How in the world is she going to turn these two into lovers without it being a sort of unhealthy relationship? There's not a whole lot of development between these two." I dunno. I think we just need to spread the word that there's more politics than romance at first. But still, it's an incredible trilogy and literally my favorite book series to this day.

Oh wow found my fellow Folk of the Air fan and an Army 💜

The queen of nothing is my favorite book on the series! I liked the previous both but I felt that the plot was so much more interesting, and the romance so cute! I couldn’t stop blushing every time cardan said “She is my wife” 🥹

This trilogy is one of my favorites!

SCREAMING CRYING THE QUEEN IS READING ONE OF MY FAV SERIES finished the vid: we stan the taryn hate club. i love jude and cardan they're my fav and the reason i love the trilogy. i agree that some parts can get boring and too much inner dialogue than real dialogue/ action for all that is happening. but i think its bc its the first fantasy series i read that's why it has a special place in my heart. IM SO HAPPY U FINISHED IT

you should read cardan's letters to jude 😌 you can find it anywhere in the internet

I hate that kind of thing, usually, but it didn’t bother me in this book, maybe because it wasn’t the central focus of the story, and because Jude actually stands up to him and everything

I loved this series, but what helped me was I looked up pictures of what they all looked like and what their kingdom/realm looks like as well. I love maps in books too, it helps give you a glimpse of where they are.

I have no plans of reading this series, I had no idea what you were talking abt YET I enjoyed every second of this reading vlog and ate up every single minute😂

last book was BY FAR the best

it's so interesting to see your perspective and opinions of this series especially bc i felt the total opposite! since you didn't like the writing style and the politics of it all (which is most of the series’s plot), it makes perfect sense that you didn't love the series. i, myself, also personally find it hard to enjoy books when i don't like the author's writing style even with amazing plot and characters. a big part of why i loved this series is also bc of the characters and the setting. i loved jude and cardan and elfhame in general even if it's a pretty brutal place. so i totally understand why you said it wasn't for you. i'm glad you enjoyed the queen of nothing even just a little bit tho!!

I got into reading by reading fantasy and at first it was so hard for me to imagine all of the places mentioned, all of the scenes and characters, but the more fantasy books I read the easier it got for me to imagine everything in my head which made fantasy books a lot more enjoyable and easy for me. That way I love fantasy now and the cruel prince too because the way I imagined all the places and characters is so beautiful in my head (if that makes sense). That helped me a lot with fantasy ☺️

i haven’t finished the video yet but in case you don’t know there’s a “book” you’re supposed to read after the cruel prince and before the wicked king (book 1.5) wich is called “the lost sisters” (there’s no physical book of that, only online) and is just taryn’s pov of the cruel prince but it’s like 50 something pages and then there’s also another book (3.5) called “how the king of elfame learnt to hate stories” but neither of those are “main” books or like a “must read” because it’s still a trilogy but it’s a nice add to the stories

I'm so glad you said you had no idea what happened in the Wicked King because girl I could not tell you what happened in that book either and I thought I was the only one. Also I agree with you that there were times in the first and second books that it felt like I was reading a foreign language or that I was reading and not retaining anything. But the 3rd book made up for the other two, because it was just so much better and had a more interesting plot line.

for those of you who wants to read this series, there are 2 things that you need to know/ understand before diving into these books. 1. the romance is a sub plot, so no there won't be romance until like almost the end of the first book. it is not the main story/ focus of this book so don't get your hopes up/ wait for the romantic scene to happen. 2. haley pham said this line that got me very hooked & intrigued to start reading the series. it is an enemies to lovers but they kept being enemies even when they've turned into lovers. to me, the folk of the air series is an easy 5 star as a whole. the little romance is what makes these books soo addicting to read because you feel the yearning feeling of their moments but still very much focused on the whole politics bcs you'll never know what will happen to them. the plot twists are so good and unpredictable to me and i know everyone has said it but the wicked king is definitely my favorite out of the trilogy.

loved this! i definitely need to read this series

I know literally nothing about this series and, honestly, I'm probably not ever going to read it, but going along the journey getting little snippets here and there and forming my own version of the story in my head was very fun

Omgg I understand why you didn’t love it, I kinda felt the same in the first book but beyond that I just loved it 😭😭

I ordered this book!!

I’m obsessed with folk of the air cardan has made it on to my list of fictional characters i simp for 😂😂

i loved this series and i love love cardan too and i rlly love jude too, shes a bit morally grey but thats the point kinda and i liked how when they became 'lovers' they still had their enemy banter. i adore the romance but it is very much a subplot so i think ppl need to stop recommending it as a fantasy romance because its more focused on like politics, you probably would have enjoyed this series more if you knew what to expect :( also did your books have cardan's letters?? if not there's like 4 and i recommend reading them online, pretty sure its just on google, theyre rlly cute!

this is a fantasy book so if there’s a lot of fantasy then not romance, it is delivering what is promised not disappointing

bruh these books are fantastic

I waited this whole week and spent it reading this series so i could watch your reading vlog! And here is my rating. The cruel prince: 3/5 stars. The wicked king: 3,5/5 stars. And the last book The queen of nothing was a five star for me. I loved the last book!

wow i literally just finished the series yesterday!!

The way i related to literally all y're opinions abt this trilogy
