I love this book!! I seriously couldn’t put it down, it was addicting. Nikolai is my favorite grishaverse character so I am not too surprised I loved this books so much, but I didn’t expect to love Zoya as much as I do now! I also loved getting to continue Nina’s story! One of my favorite things is jumping between the different plot lines, it kept the book intriguing and had me reading as fast as I could. I loved seeing familiar faces and there was so much I genuinely didn’t seem coming. I loved this book so much and I’m so sad I’m done reading it. I know I only have 2 weeks until rule of wolves is out, but man idk how I’m gonna survive — especially with that ending (I feel for all you who read this when it came out).
