A review by iwasalilacsky
Ruin and Rising by Leigh Bardugo

5.0

Wow. I honestly cannot put into to words how I am feeling. I feel full, but heartbroken all at once. It was sad to close the book and let it finally end.
The love I have for each character. I am extremely torn up about the Darkling (Aleksander). I understand why everything needed to happen, but in another life she would be with him. In another with Nikolai. Her love for Mal never left her, and their ending together made sense. I loved the painful journey I was taken on.

Thank you Leigh for bringing me into this world. I am very excited to dive into Six of Crows and then King of Scars.
