Girls on Tour Book Club
Girls on Tour is a book club that aims to keep us connected while shining a light on some bad ass women and gender diverse people in the entertainment industry.
Every month your hosts Monique and Briony will talk endless nonsense about our fiction book of the month, and every ten weeks Monique will be joined by a special guest host to chat about specific roles in the industry and their own remarkable careers.
This book club is for those who tour and the ones who are left behind, for lovers of fantasy, music and theatre and for those who find that most book clubs are not accessible to them due to schedule, physical health, chronic illness and/or mental health.

The Cruel Prince by Holly Black
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 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.
As Jude becomes more deeply embroiled in palace intrigues and deceptions, she discovers her own capacity for trickery and bloodshed. But as betrayal 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.
