A review by shreeb
Siege and Storm by Leigh Bardugo

2.0

This book is loads better than the first one, which I’d give 3 stars. Nikolai is probably my favorite part of this book just because he’s such a compelling character and stands out from everyone. I really liked his friendship with Alina, who I actually like a lot better now than in book 1 because of this internal struggle she’s going through. Not a huge fan of Mail but I don’t hate him either. I’m very excited to read the next book and the rest of the books in the Grishaverse, especially Six of Crows because I heard that it’s a heist novel and people love it (and Nikolai is the main character of King of Scars?? Yes please)

Edit: after rereading the series this is my least favorite book in the entire grishaverse, but the Nikolai moments save it. also six of crows is fantastic and everybody should read it
