 Ahhh, ovo mi je došlo kao naručeno. Jedina stvar koja me kod ove knjige ljuti je ta što ima kraj. Zaista bih htjela vidjeti što se još s Wandom i Irinom izdogađalo, a bome i

kako se Miryemina obitelj nosila s tim da imaju ledenu sigu koju više ne mrze za zeta,

hhh. U biti, za svaku od naše tri junakinje mogla bih komotno pročitati po još jednu knjigu. Četvrt zvijezdice do savršenstva je čisto pitanje raspodjele poglavlja. Voljela bih da se zadržao po jedan POV po poglavlju, iako mi je jasno da ih je nagurano više kao bi se pokazala istovremenost radnje.

Naomi Novik is becoming one of my favorite authors.  Her stories remind me of the fantastical books I would read as a kid, just sexier and darker.
