3.5*Een leuk fantasie boek, en de schrijfstijl is fijn. Wel had de world building nog wat beter gekund, maar ik hoop dat dit zich verder ontwikkeld in de serie.Het probleem wat ik heb, is dat ik nu zo veel YA boeken gelezen heb, dat ik de originaliteit mis.Een YA bevat vaak de volgende punten:- Een...
I just finished reading the Grisha Trilogy and I've got to say, wow. I'm not gonna spoil anything, but the ending is sad but satisfying. I couldn't put these books down. You will most likely bond with the most evil person in the entire series. You will also probably question just about all of Alina'...
I started this book yesterday. If the time it took me to read it is any indicator, it was really good! I knew this book had high ratings among the book-tube community so I grabbed it while I was at the library a couple weeks ago. This is the most satisfying book from the library books I grabbed (Le...
To be completely honest, I remember the basics of this book but not enough to write a full-fledged review of it. The fact of the matter is that even though I thought it was a decent book initially, the one time I that I set it down I forgot that I was reading it. For weeks. I didn't remember that I ...

April 29, 2015Book review is up on Word Revel.March 28, 2015Initial thoughts: Eh. That's the first description that comes to mind. Interjections count! It's just that as much as I loved the setting, the writing didn't impress me. The pacing wasn't as strong as I thought it could've been. The plot po...
I loved the setting of this book--an embattled kingdom inspired by imperial Russia with the noteworthy addition of magic--as much as I enjoyed its story. While Alina Starkov is serving as an apprentice map maker in the army a deadly battlefield encounter on the monster-filled Shadow Fold forces out ...
In a fantasy world heavily inspired by Russian folklore elements (which is also reflected in the gorgeous cover design of the books), Alina and Mal are orphans raised on the estate of a benevolent Duke. Growing up, they are inseperable, when they grow up, they (like most others) join the First Army,...
As the cover says, this book is unlike anything I've ever read. First, the setting. I'm not sure yet what to make of it. Obviously, we aren't anywhere on earth as we know it. I'm fairly certain that two of the other nations in this book represent Asia and Russia, but that could be completely wrong. ...
Hey guys, I hope you all are having a great day, and this is my review to Leigh Bardugo’s Shadow and Bone which is the first book in The Grisha Trilogy. Surrounded by enemies, the once-great nation of Ravka has been torn in two by the Shadow Fold, a swath of near impenetrable darkness crawling with...
