For a moment there, I thought my little heart could not take how the story was unfolding. In what the Darkling decided on as a punishment for
Please do yourself a favour and go read this series. It deserves all the hype it's getting. I cannot wait to go dive back into the Grishaverse with "Six of Crows" next.

I still think a certain someone deserved worst for everything he did but oh well. I loved the confort of the last few pages. and I may or may not have shed a tear.... or maybe cried a lot who knows...
Nikolai has his own little space in my heart and I would love to have a chance to be his queen. đ I hope to see him in the other grishaverse books đ„ș
I loved this trilogy and I definitely will be revisiting it one day.
I'm so excited to read the other grishaverse books, I've heard Six of Crows is even better so I'm sooooo excited.â€ïž

In like the end of Siege and storms I started to wondering whether if I wanted Alina to end up with Mal or Nikolai, and that thought followed me through Ruin and Rising too!
My favorite character from R&R is definitely Misha!! I adore the the small little moments when Mal is With Misha, especially when Misha is curled up against Mal! Those moments make me like Mal more!
I think all three of these books had pretty long boring parts, like in my opinion the book was kinda only thrilling when it was âwarâ. Those boring parts was what didnât give the triology the âWow-feelingâ.
But I love the moments where the darkling shows himself vulnerable because that makes him more human which I like.
And I also love that you get to know his real name!

So many twists and turns, a slightly slow start but once it picks up it is pretty much non-stop until the end. Tears were shed, books were *almost* thrown at walls, squeals were heard near-constantly while reading, and my face looked pretty much like this â
