go for it and in starting 30 or 50 pages its little boring but after that story line takes perfect place.

review for SHADOW AND BONE
Super happy that I finally picked it up in January. I buddy-read Shadow and Bone along with Faguni from @fannatality . I am happy to say that although we decided to read it at the rate of 3 chapters per day, we ultimately rushed through and finished the book way before the estimated end date. I really loved reading this book and Faguni and I are back with the schedule for buddy-reading Siege and Storm (the sequel to Shadow and Bone) this February.The plot was amazing firstly, and kept me hooked on until the very end.The Darkling who although does not really appear in the first few chapters, is mentioned, enough times in these, for us readers to create a mental image on him and oh my! I’m not sure if I should expound upon that here.Alina also displayed an innate goodness of character, with her innocence and determination to stay strong. Her relationships with all the people around her, especially Zoya is quite interesting to note. Speaking of Zoya, she is another figure, intriguing and with great depth. All of the characters, with their various back stories are truly amazing to read about.However, having read the Six of Crows duology before this book, I do know roughly how this might turn up but nonetheless I am excited for the sequel. Moreover, I also noted that Leigh Bardugo’s writing has greatly improved in the duology, without saying that it is not good in this trilogy.The magic system is also well-explained in this one, considering that this one revolves around that itself. The themes on magic, fantasy, friendship and kinship, along with love, physicality etc. are also quite well proportioned throughout. This world itself is amazing and I am in utter love!Lastly, I ship Alina and Darkling, don’t you?(please note that I have only read Shadow and Bone, so NO SPOILERS!!!)

A must read
"Shadow and Bone" is an enthralling fantasy novel that takes readers on a journey through the mystical land of Ravka, a place where darkness rules and magic is both feared and revered. The story centers around Alina Starkov, an orphaned girl who discovers she possesses a rare and powerful magic that could save Ravka from the darkness that threatens to consume it.Bardugo's writing is captivating, and she paints a vivid picture of the world of Ravka, its people, and its politics. The characters are well-developed, and their motivations and actions are compelling. Alina's journey from an ordinary orphan to a powerful Grisha (a person with magical abilities) is engrossing and heartwarming.One of the book's strengths is its world-building. The world of Ravka is richly detailed, and Bardugo has created a complex mythology that adds depth to the story. The political intrigue and power struggles within Ravka add another layer of complexity to the story, making it a fascinating read."Shadow and Bone" is an excellent book that will appeal to fans of the fantasy genre. Bardugo has created a world and characters that will keep readers engaged from beginning to end. If you're looking for a thrilling and magical adventure, "Shadow and Bone" is the book for you.

La caja venía un poco picada, pero el libro esta perfecto
El libro está perfecto. Ni siquiera estaba sacada la cinta marcapáginas interior. La caja es preciosa también, es una pena que esté un poco picada por un lado y tiene una mini raya en medio, pero el libro esta perfecto es lo importante.

Amazing!
I have to admit, at first I wasn’t sure about this book. When I was reading it, I felt like it isn’t something I would read. However, as I carried on reading the story got more amazing by the minute. There was times I was smiling to myself, other times I felt like crying but all in all I can’t wait to start reading book two. I love the main characters they just light up my life. I love romance when it comes to books, so it was exciting to experience that too. I have to admit again, that their were some shocking moments especially coming towards the end of the book (and the extra parts that where at the back of the book). But, I am so happy that I finally got the chance to start reading this serious and can’t wait to start book two! ☺️ x
