Just wasn’t for me. Loved the characters tho, js couldn’t be bothered with the plot.
Ruin and Rising by Leigh Bardugo
2.0
I loved the 1st and 2nd act of the book but the 3rd act fell short of expectations (that were low to begin with considering how pessimistic I am). I had no sympathy or love for Aleksander whatsoever, so Leigh’s attempts at making Alina sorry for him was just not it, especially after what he did and the deaths he caused . I loved the supporting Grisha and Nikolai in this book tho, even when the cast felt crowded and it was hard to keep track of everyone.
I feel like 3rd amplifier’s reasoning behind it wasn’t as fleshed out as it could’ve been which made it feel a little flat, but I still enjoyed it. It was fitting for the story tho.
I think Leigh backed herself into a little bit of a corner, and had to right a few too many twists and turns to make everything fit nicely. Pacing was incredibly weird, but writing’s hard and I enjoyed the series overall. I’m still gonna read six of crows and king of scars lol

THE ART?? THE STORY?? They really stepped it up with this one. I js dislike how they transitioned to the next book, but I’ll happily read it anyway.
Love Jack’s new arm too! :)
Storm Warning by Melissa Scott
2.75
I think I would’ve enjoyed and understood the book more if I had watched the show beforehand (as a lot of things were just flat-out unexplained or not described), and I don’t blame the book for that. I like the dialogue and cast of lovable characters, Kazu especially. The plot was a little questionable tho

HOLY SHIT. THE PLOT TWIST??? WHAT??? Things are a little sketch before, but if you think abt them after the twist, it all makes sense. Can’t wait to read the next book.
