Why I love tfota
JURDAN! (For obvious reasons)
The clothes (delictable descriptions of otherwordly dresses and doublets)
Jude's hair! (I believe this gets it's own category because of how creative I can be with Jude's horns)
The politics! (Conflict of interest? SUCCESSION CRISIS? OVERWORKED SECRET HAND TO THE THRONE??! Sign me up!)
Jude's girlbossing (Or just general bossing)
Cardan's shenanigans (What more can I say?)
The worldbuilding (The beautiful yet uncanny alien world of Faerie was what drew me in the first place. I love the worldbuilding of the tantalizing High Court that really, as a reader, put me on edge along with the main character. It was almost like I couldn't always be comfortable while reading because I was always trying to anticipate the next pitfall. Plus I felt really smart when I figured out some of the mystery Holly Black cleverly laid out in clues :) .)
The court of shadows friendship (they will support each other no matter what!)
How Holly Black brought in other characters from other books (I know she's been doing this for a while but MAN it makes me want to read Tithe)
The drama (woahh reading HTKOELTHS was crazy. The gossip so intense.)
The writing itself (Honestly learned so many words and ways to structure sentences from these books. Helped out with my own writing a little.)
Jude conquering over everything in the end despite the faerie's judgements about her being human was so satisfying.
All the friends I made! (This series is already good but yall made it better.)
I could honestly go on and on but this list is way too long (And I haven't even talked about the majority of the side characters yet!). Thank you for reading.

How does one come to be in the court of shadows...?
My court of shadows is just my group of close moots in tumblr! You are indeed a part of my court of shadows 😌

Sunglasses
Headcanon that in order to make up for the fact the folk are night creatures and therefore unaccustomed to the bright daylight in the mortal world, Jude, Cardan and the court of shadows rock up to the mortal realm wearing sunglasses.
Bonus if other people mistake the heavily armed scowling group wearing an excess amount of finery (I’m talking about Cardan) and shades as members of rock band or smth.

That's literally the Court of Shadows and Cardan except, he's the one who'd say the highlighted lines and Jude would say the last one,

I was scarred; I was beautiful, and I didn't need to know what anyone else thought about the matter.
