112. The Cruel Prince by Holly Black (Part 2) "The point that you fall."

If you've been kind of iffy on Jude through part one, there's a very particular hand scene in part two where Jude establishes herself as one of the most badass heroines in the genre. This is the gritty, resilient kind of main character every romantasy author tries to write with middling success.------------------------------------------Is there anyone who hasn't read The Cruel Prince yet? This is an urban fantasy (kind of) filled with deliciously evil fairies, a bloodthirsty heroine, and a very questionable romantic lead.https://www.goodreads.com/book/show/26032825-the-cruel-princePoison Study by Maria Snyder is also mentioned in this episode, check it out here: https://www.goodreads.com/book/show/60510.Poison_StudyWant more of Jordan, Katie, and Not Another Heroine?
