The Cruel Prince By Holly Black | Animated Book Summary

[@madisonh8428]

Jude doesn’t kill Valerian in the tower. She stabs him, yes, but she doesn’t kill him. He keeps quiet cuz he’s embarrassed that he was bested by a mortal girl, but Dain finds out abt the incident anyway and THAT is what he punishes Jude for, not saving Sophie (which would have probably had much larger consequences for Jude). Jude only actually kills Valerian when he drunkenly breaks into her house and attempts to kill her (either later the same day as she stabbed him, or the next day.. I can’t quite remember). She kills him, she hides his body, the Ghost shows up, she goes with the Ghost, she gets back afterward and then buries the body.

I was gonna say the same thing. I remember this scene so vividly because I was so shocked she actaully killed him like I dead ass GASPED because I didn't realize that the book was going to have so much murder in it for some reason until that point. twas like a turning point. sorry im yapping this series was big for me and the start of my reading journey and I have no one to talk to about it with so im bothering youuu lalala

[@madisonh8428]

@ nonono i LOVE this series!! you’re not bothering me at all haha. i remember being shocked as well, but that was a really big turning point for Jude, considering it was her first (of many) kill(s). definitely deserved bc Valerian was an a$$, but shocking nonetheless. and she did it with one hand too! a bada$$!!!

[@marishika7575]

I dont have thhe attention span for these books but videos like this convince me to buy it tyvm

[@luckystar9279]

[@marishika7575]

@@luckystar9279 very much but very mean can work too my wallet

[@Meelameels]

I just listened to the audiobook

[@OREGANO-es6by]

This is the book series that got me into reading. Cant wait for your next video!

[@katgreer6113]

Same!

[@pagely700]

I'm so glad!

[@TimeLady128]

I heard good things about the book. I got the book. I tried to read the book ... couldn't do it. The characters were flat, the dialogue was bad, and watching this summary to see what happened after I stopped reading, there are so nonsensical twists everywhere. It makes me glad to have pushed and delayed reading on, because now I am convinced I would have sworn off reading for a while in fear of getting another book of this .... Strange calibre. I wish all the fun to everyone who enjoyed the book, but I seriously don't get all the hype it got...

[@katgreer6113]

Its so cool how people can have very different opinions on the same thing. The comment above yours talks about how interesting this is

[@cebangabriela6133]

@TimeLady128 i felt the same way when i first started reading this book , but now i quite enjoy it

[@Marcia-vl2yh]

I have been obsessed with this series for forever, thank you for the summary!

[@pagely700]

You're so welcome!

[@Pepper-e5d]

I would LOVEEE to see the Ballad of Never After by Stephanie Garber 🤭🤭

[@wordswiths]

I just finished this book and loved it!

[@toni2065]

Wow, you earned yourself a new subscriber. Love it. Your doodle, the humour, thanks for the video! All the best ❤

[@cececarrasco119]

I love this book and you gave a really great summary with cute illustrations!

[@sketchartroblox1987]

OOH MYY I WAS WISHING FOR THIS EVER SINCE I SAW YOUR OTHER SUMMARY DAYS AGO I NEVER EXPECTED IT WOULD ACTUALLY HAPPEN!! THANK YOU SO MUCH FOR THIS WONDERFUL SUMMARY OF MY FAV BOOK!!!!!!!!!

[@pagely700]

You're so welcome!

[@izzielightlife5788]

I literally adore this book! Thank you soooo much for doing a recap on it, definitely subscribing to this channel (Can’t wait for more videos 😆)

[@pagely700]

Yay! Thank you!

[@purple_ARJ]

Omg loved that, pretty good nutshell of the whole story, love the charecters drawings too 💜

[@44zeex]

I drop the book after the scene with Jude crawling around in her underwear. No apologies was given and I can't stand SA in books.

[@zink6379]

She literally murders the guy who did that lol

[@katgreer6113]

​@zink6379 people always judge this book too early and never read on its so odd....the complaints that they have would be resolved if they FINISHED the book!! Then again, Faerie is a dark world and I'm glad Holly Black portrays it as such. Some people either don't like it, or just aren't ready for the cruelty the setting brings.

[@katharinamuller50]

A deadly education would be amazing. Scholomance is one of my favourite series

[@Blizzardthesnowdragon]

Can't wait to see the summaries for the other books!

[@nolijackson2930]

This is great ! but it’s always so funny how you can tell someone hasn’t read the other Holly Black’s faeries books cause of the way they draw Kaye, Severin or Ben (Severin’s lover)

[@AphroditeLee]

OMG! These are so cute! Makes me want to try and draw one for my novel SHATTERED!

[@luckystar9279]

I'm not going to finish the video. Not because it wasn't good or anything, but because I already switched over and bought the book. XD I'll be back though

[@casandrearagon7329]

I love this. It was interesting, I tired reading the book but it was too long. I would to see Caraval and OUBH series.❤

I love this!

[@Saffron_Claire]

I remember reading the entire trilogy in like 8 hours and I was bored out of my mind so idk how you made this summary so appealing that I'm tempted to read it again lmao

[@livsbookshelf]

You should do A Clash Of Tides next!

[@lynadegdeg6704]

[@bigpulgalokes]

I don’t like the love interest. It made me quit the book when I had 80 pages left. He’s insufferable

[@katgreer6113]

Oh, you're missing out....jk. its not for everyone

[@nara9404]

I finished the books only because I had borrowed them and couldn't give them back without completing lol. But in the third book he gets a little better, and Jude is head over heels for him so nobody cares that he's bad

[@bigpulgalokes]

@@nara9404 so he’s still a shitty person and the only good thing about him are his looks? What is this for 12 year old little girls? Yeah I’m not reading this crap

[@katgreer6113]

​@bigpulgalokes The thing is, the author KNOWS he's a bad person and doesn't make excuses for his behaviour. Usually, authors would try to justify it for the sake of making him look better.The main girl is also morally gray, just like him, if not even more so. I love how she put a twist on the guy in the book. It taught an important lesson. That so called villains in fiction had people they loved as well. They dont have to be one dimensional assholes who love no one and have no hobbies. But love interests were getting so boring. Glad I read this.

[@PoptartFreak09]

This convinced me I'm not missing anything from that series lmfao

[@heva1578]

can you pleeeeeease make a summary of Dance of Thieves

[@Anitchatchua]

[@ionaskualexander1255]

if only u made summaries for books worh reading instead of this YA BS...

[@katgreer6113]

Another person shaming a whole demographic of people instead of simply reading said "books worth reading" and being quiet.

[@Sylrene_theFaery]

yoooooo

[@racheltheradiant4675]

Ugh, Jude is a boys name, I'm so over the terrible names for female main characters 🙄🙄 P.S. this plot sounds way to convoluted for me. Thanks.

[@katgreer6113]

Jude can also ne a girls name 😂 and this plot isnt convuluted its just not simple

[@racheltheradiant4675]

@katgreer6113 Jude originally is Hebrew, one of Jesus's apostles, so yes, it's a man's name. But I understand that many people now name their girls with guys names without feminizing them like they used to with "Henry" and "Henrietta" as an example. I'm just not a fan. ☺️

[@Juliette_seaturtle]

Why do names have to have gender

[@racheltheradiant4675]

Because there are two genders, if everyone is named the same way no one is special and women are no longer individuals. They are under the umbrella of "man" which is ironic since people have stopped saying Mankind and started saying Humankind.😂😂 Let girls have girls names, stop Cultural Appropriating boys names. Of course you don't have to, this is, after all, only my opinion. 😄

[@NourSalem-pb2nx]

Worst thing about the book is the fact they spell fairy faerie because it sounds more *mysterious*

[@katgreer6113]

It's spelt that way in other languages/cultures. In a lot of ways, this book keeps true to real Celtic folklore. The word 'Faerie' is derived from the Gaelic word fear sidhe, meaning 'man of shee'. Fairys in modern media are tiny pixies with wings. Ancient Faeries, on the other hand, can be elf looking human sized creatures with magic. It's not to be mysterious. This author did her research, obviously. Honestly, all this is a simple Google search away.

[@firefox77744]

ummm that's not a unique thing to the book and a real spelling
