This was a good continuation to the Shadow and Bone trilogy. I will admit I was not invested the whole time, but the last 20% of this book completely blew me away.
We start this book off with so much action. And the action in these books is amazing. Leigh Bardugo knows how to work her way around some action scenes! However, the middle of the book dragged for me. I couldn't keep focus, so I actually ended up putting this aside for a few days. But when I picked it up again, I was so invested! The action was back! The story became so much more riveting.
The ending was one I did not see coming. And I'm not sure if I'm completely pleased by it, but it did blow my mind so there's that.
Looking forward to reading the final book of this trilogy!
