Podcast Review of The Wicked King by Holly Black
We were so excited to have Olivia Gacka from That Fiction Life on YouTube on the podcast to break down our favorite and least favorite parts of the book!
We talked through:
Jude's journey and claiming her power as a "creature" of faerie
Maddox as her father figure, and how that shaped Jude to be powerful
Jude and Cardan's changing relationship
Cardan becomes a king of faerie in truth and Jude's fear of this
Jude late to the party of Cardan's feelings towards her
Jude being kidnapped by the Undersea, tortured, and does not know if she'll survive.
Jude tricking Baelkin and being ruthless #weareobsessed
Our feelings reading the ending for the first time and then reading it a second time.
