Ruin and Rising by Leigh Bardugo
3.0
The ending felt right. The best way it could’ve ended for Alina.
I enjoyed the friendships that were formed and developed in this book. It was more than I had expected and took me by surprise.
The pacing wasn’t too bad but many moments were boring and had me wanting to fall asleep. Some parts of this book were mind-numbing while only a few piqued my interest enough to not want to put it down straight away.
Compared to the two previous books in this series, Ruin and Rising had a lot more action. This is the only thing that sets it apart as better than the first two instalments.
I was most excited to read about Nikolai and I loved the foreshadowing for King of Scars.
Stars ~ 2.5
