“I think of his riddle. How do people like us take off our armor? One piece at a time.”

The Queen of Nothing is the third and final book in the Folk of the Air series by Holly Black. 

I think out of the three in the series, this one is my favorite. Black’s writing is at its best. The pacing of this was brilliant, and there was good buildup to the action. I love everything about Jude as a character, so smart and badass and witty. However, I’m never forgiving Taryn lmao. Jude and Cardan are going to be my holy grail standard for enemies to lovers now, and talk about slowburn!!! 

The ending was really satisfying and tied up the storylines nicely — both surprising and heartwarming. This was definitely one where I wasn’t ready to say goodbye to the world and characters though. This was such a fun and wonderful series to read, it will have a special place on my shelf forever! 

⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️/⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️
