Although written in the same biting prose, it is third person, so you don’t have the same emotional closeness, but it reads like the fairy tales my mom read aloud to me when I was little. Less than 200 pages, it is also full of beautiful illustrations and broken up into chapters with titles and title pages. Instead, Black takes a more story-book approach. This book was nothing like that-and I adored it. After Queen of Nothing revealed Cardan had always felt differently about Jude than he’d let on, I desperately wanted to see their relationship again from his perspective. I assumed this would follow the same style, simply telling a short snippet of the original series from Cardan’s point of view. I fell in love with this series originally because of its biting prose and the first person narration that made me feel right inside the series’s main character Jude’s head. In all honesty, this novella was not what I expected. How the King of Elhame Learned to Hate Stories by Holly Black is a charming addition to her fabulous Folk of the Air series.
