Bardugo's writing never ceases to amaze me. The worldbuilding is immaculate - I don't want to find my way back to reality once I get lost in the Grishaverse. As I expected, the characters are amazing too. Nikolai was one of my favorite characters in the Shadow and Bone trilogy, so I enjoyed getting to know him on a deeper level. Nina's journey in the north was very intriguing as well. What surprised me was how much I ended up liking Zoya! I'm excited to read the second book in the duology and find out what happens to all these incredible characters.
