Leigh Bardugo’s Grishaverse is simultaneously a place I never want to visit and a place I never want to leave. I am completely immersed in her world building, and at the end of each book I want to scream IT’S NOT ENOUGH SLICES. I want these stories to go on forever. 

the revelation that the darkling’s visit were not just hallucinations was ✨so good✨ and I did not see Alina taking control of his power AT ALL. 

My one criticism is that it feels like the attempt at a love match between Alina and Nikolai seemed totally unnecessary, and like, it would be nice if there was one male character in this series who wasn’t trying to control Alina in some way. <\spoiler>

Anyway, I’m obsessed with this series. Instant buy from here on.
