The Folk of the Air Series by Holly Black



⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️/5


This trilogy started off a bit juvenile for my taste but by the end of the series, I was really enjoying it and my review elevated to 4 stars! The imaginative world of Faerie was fun to explore through the eyes of a “mortal” character and I had no problem flying through all 3 of these books. Definitely recommend for those looking for an easy fantasy read that isn’t overly dark or depressing!


Content Rating: PG-13, definitely suitable for YA audiences


Description for Book 1:

"Of course I want to be like them. They're beautiful as blades forged in some divine fire. They will live forever.


And Cardan is even more beautiful than the rest. I hate him more than all the others. I hate him so much that sometimes when I look at him, I can hardly breathe."


Jude was seven years old when her parents were murdered and she and her two sisters were stolen away to live in the treacherous High Court of Faerie. Ten years later, Jude wants nothing more than to belong there, despite her mortality. But many of the fey despise humans. Especially Prince Cardan, the youngest and wickedest son of the High King.


To win a place at the Court, she must defy him--and face the consequences.


In doing so, she becomes embroiled in palace intrigues and deceptions, discovering her own capacity for bloodshed. But as civil war threatens to drown the Courts of Faerie in violence, Jude will need to risk her life in a dangerous alliance to save her sisters, and Faerie itself.
