Can confirm, the hype is real. This was sooo good!! I loved the world building and the story; Alina is such a relatable character, I felt so much for her. My absolute favourite scene of the book has to be

right before Mal and Alina find Morozova's stag. Ugh, all the feels!
"I'm sorry it took me so long to see you, Alina. But I see you now."
My little heart just cannot...

. I really liked how Alina realised what exactly she's capable of doing and I'm excited to see how her story continues.

It was a very good book! I loved the Darkling and Alina banter. xD It was a very easy and fast read. I was done with it in a few hours. :>

There’s something about a series that just pulls me in. Maybe it’s the cliffhanger ending, maybe the greater opportunity for world building, but they always capture my attention. You’ll love Shadow and Bone if you’re a fantasy person or if you’re just seeking the high of a series.

I was a bit worried about not enjoying because i’ve hear a lot of  mixed reviews but I thought it was nice, nothing revolutionary but a good solid book that I enjoyed reading.
