Me ha encantado. hacia mucho que quería leerlo y siempre lo postergaba. Me alegro haber empezado la saga. Alina me ha encantado y el mundo creado por la autora es una maravilla. El Oscuro es un personaje que me atrae bastante. Estoy deseando leer la segunda parte. Y ver como van a ambiantar todo en la serie

Edit: After trying, I just can't get a review out, so I will just say this. Guys, read this one! It has a bit of a slow start, but as soon as things start, you won't be able to stop reading this book any more!

First thoughts after reading: OMG OMG OMG THIS WAS JUST AMAZING, FANTASTIC! Everyone should read this. OMG OMG OMG. *is so excited* I need book 2, and 3 NOW. Sadly, it is 10pm so the libraries are closed. BUT SOON! *tries to breathe*

5 BEAUTIFUL stars + one extra because this was just EPIC.

Review to come as soon as I gathered my brain, my breathe and everything else again.

Every once in a while, I get a craving for dystopian ya. Last year I devoured the Lunar Chronicles during the first month of the pandemic (in the middle of a very demanding class on finding Christ in the Old Testament and applying it to life). It was an indulgence I did not plan - and I have no commentary on the wisdom of that choice, but I bounced back and managed to do okay in the class. Ha!

Previous years have seen me plunging into the Divergent series, the Hunger Games, and Miss Peregrine’s Peculiar Children. I can’t plan these little escapes, but they certainly do find me and it must be how I relieve stress.

Latest installment? Shadow & Bone. A couple of chapters in, I wasn’t sure if I’d stick with it, but soon I was hooked and I like where it’s going. Just started the second book and have a feeling I won’t regret it.
