2023 Reads Continued.....☀️ Holiday in Greece

ROW - Great conclusion to the Duology. Seemed to set it up for the next in Grishaverse novels

TDATDW - was a tad dull tbh. 500+ pages for very little pay off. Disappointed as Evelyn was so good.

TSBCGTSV - I liked the 90s setting and the housewives trying to keep up appearances vibes.
Was quite creepy in places.

This book had everything, it was a rollercoaster of emotions, it even made me cry about half way through and it's very rare that a book makes me cry. I loved everything with Nikolai and Zoya plus the cameos from several characters from other books in the series. The ending really set it up for another book which I hope will happen sometime in the near future.

Hi, my name is Lia and I‘m a Grishaverse addict🙂 That last line of the book was 😱 Again Nikolai and Zoya just one of the best slow burn love stories. So happy for Nina and Hanne but will always miss Mattahis. Genya 💔💔💔 Loved spending time with my Crows!!! Kaz, Jesper and Wylan just wish more Inej but my girl busy tar and feathering slavers so I understand 😂 can‘t wait for the second season of Shadow and Bone❤️

persephone1408 I literally can not wait until the next book! 13mo
Meshell1313 Yes! Exactly! 13mo

bthegood OMG - I'm loving these books- finished Shadow and Bone series, finishing Six of Crows - my niece and I are going to binge watch the series when school lets out (I wanted to wait until I had read the first two series) and now I have more books to add to my TBR about the Grishaverse!! 13mo

It‘s always a pleasure to spend time in the Greishaverse with these characters so yeah, this was another fun read with all the expected (and hoped for, of course) elements—Nikolai doing everything he can to save the day, Nina working under extremely dangerous conditions to aid his cause, Zoya grappling with just how far she‘ll have to go to use her own powers. And then that ending…Needless to say, I enjoyed it.

This book has sat on my shelves far too long…long enough that my daughter is deeply disappointed in me and more than a little frustrated we haven‘t been able to talk about it yet. 😬😂 That gets remedied today! So far it‘s every bit as good as I expected. Bardugo never disappoints.

A fitting end to this duology, but clearly not the end of this story. I loved the ending and am excited to see what‘s next for Zoya, Nina and the whole Ketterdam crew in whatever Bardugo writes next for the Grishaverse.

I took my time finishing this book because I wasn‘t ready for the Grishaverse series to end. This genre is not my usual go to but I was really drawn to many of the characters and enjoyed the witty banter that Bardugo writes so well. The Six of Crows duology is still my favorite but I think she wrapped up the series nicely here. I‘m curious to know if this is really the end of the Grishaverse or whether she will return to it in the future.

Gissy That ending suggests that there will be another book🙌 (edited) 2y
Ncostell @Gissy Yes, there is definitely an opening for it to continue. Here‘s hoping! 2y

I love this world and it‘s characters, but this book took me forever to get through. There is just WAY too much packed in here which made pacing rough. Some scenes were awkwardly and unnecessarily included just to get a favorite character involved…. Which feels cheap. And, of course, an opening for another book. But I‘ve had this on my #bookspinbingo list every month this year and it‘s finally read.

TheAromaofBooks At least it's off the list!!! 2y

I enjoyed this (current) finale of this duology and the Grishaverse. I cannot talk much about it without lots of spoilers. I know this isn‘t as popular but I actually preferred this over the original trilogy, but not as strong as the Crows duology. Excellent on audiobook!4⭐️

I. Finally. Finished. It. This was a bit of a struggle. I was really really sad to leave these characters behind and very attached to all of them. I found it hard to turn the pages because of that. I kept thinking something horrific was about to happen. I skim read parts just so I could make it. But then, close to the end- holy plot twist Batman! Stick it out kids 😅 ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️

Nina is still my favorite, I loved her pov. Every chapter had different pov and it wasn't really fun every time.

Nina's story was the most thrilling because she was living so dangerous life. Otherwise this had a tiny bit more politics & war that I would have preferred.

This book managed to make me feel something and I enjoyed reading.

“In the stories, love healed your wounds, fixed what was broken, allowed you to go on. But love wasn‘t a spell, some kind of benediction to be whispered, a balm or a cure-all. It was a single, fragile thread, which grew stronger through connection, through shared hardship and trust.“

I loved revisiting this world. Bardugo sure knows how to tell a story! As I have come to expect from the author, there was awesome world building, fabulous characters and a fast paced plot. A great adventure! Can't wait to read what she has in store for readers next. 4.5⭐

7th book in this series. I‘m really enjoying this YA series. This book didn‘t disappoint me. Full of actions, various twists, sad and funny scenes. We see some characters from Six of crow duology. Many characters can be described as “Ulfleden-wolf-blooded” which means “when a child is odd, behaves strangely...her (his) place is with the wolves...she (he) doesn‘t belong”. I think I‘m wolf-blooded, welcome to the pack 🐺 3.8/4⭐️
This is not the end

Andrew65 A brilliant Readathon 👏👏👏🙌🥳🥳🥳🍾🥂😍👍😊 Well done and thanks for playing along. 2y

Leigh Bardugo just can't go wrong, I haven't read anything by her I just didn't fall face first into love! Rule of Wolves follows our favorite Ravkan characters Nikolai and Zoya trying to stop war with the Fjerda and Nina, one of the character loves of my life undercover trying not to fall in love herself while mourning in Fjreda. I open these books and it feels like home with how real the world has been built and how much I love the stories.

Hey everyone! It‘s been a while! Life happened and I‘ve been off of Litsy but I‘m happy to be back. :)

And that‘s a wrap on Shadow and Bone. If anything, expect nothing less from Leigh Bardugo. The plot and the characters are well developed, especially Zoya.

Like the previous books, the ending isn‘t what I expected. It took me completely by surprise. It‘s bittersweet now that I‘m done with the series but I highly recommend it!

Rating: 5/5

Good grief. What a tome. Been at it for three days and only at the halfway point… not that‘s it‘s not pulling me in, it‘s just so much to absorb. Poor Nikolai and his desperate posse… things do turn worse. #fantasy #duology #grishaverse Plus my beautiful red plant. #springisspringing #sunshine

While I‘m still enthralled with the book and will be finished, I wanted to mark the page in which I officially started my critical review of Bardugo and the Grishaverse as a whole. Still enough book to turn some thoughts more positively but this book ruined a lot of my enjoyment of the series

julesG Ditto. It feels a bit as if she wrote it with the TV series in mind. 3y
CollapsingLibrary @julesG yes! And having all the characters from the original series and six of crows duology together is just showcasing how it‘s the same cast of characters with just slight differences and they‘re starting to meld into one another, in my opinion. 3y

I finished this one yesterday, continues the story from King of Scars. I enjoyed it and was happy with the ending. It does look like the ending is left open for another book. Not sure if she needs to write more though.

I need help! What do you guys do with all the bookish swag that comes from preorders? I didn't realize it but I'm starting to get quite the collection of prints, pins and cards (this isn't nearly all of it) and I have no idea what to do with it! Throw me your ideas!!

#collector #swag #likeineedmorestufflayingaround #wheredoesitgo #cantturndownfreeshit

DinoMom I donate the stuff I get to local charities like the animal shelters who do online or silent auctions. Or if you join book swaps some may be good for those . 3y
TheKidUpstairs For stuff you want to keep: you can get cool pinboards for your pins to help organize/ display them, smaller prints/postcards make great bookmarks. Stuff you don't necessarily want to keep for yourself but is in good condition and cool stuff is great to keep in a bin/ box if you do swaps, to pass on the bookish goodies to someone else who will love them! 3y
Soubhiville I agree with @TheKidUpstairs and @DinoMom , you can put them in swap boxes or find a Little Free Library near you to put them in. Someone else will be excited about the things you don‘t want. I have several prints framed and a “book bag” tote I put all my pins on. 😊 3y

FantasyChick Those are some great ideas! I never think of passing them on in swaps. And I love the pinning to the tote idea. I never know what to do with pins but I always want to keep them 🤣 Thanks for the suggestions @Soubhiville @TheKidUpstairs @DinoMom 3y
ShelleyBooksie Awesome swag! 3y
Eeberst Start a themed pin board! You can get a cork board of any size to hang up and even paint it to match your theme, and watch your collection grow as you add your pins :) 3y

Just finished Rule of Wolves today and I have SO many feelings!

I love Leigh Bardugo‘s books so much, but I always have a hard time getting thru them. It takes me a lot longer to read her books than it would normally take me to read a book of the same size.
It‘s so worth it tho, her characters are just 🤌🏼

So fun! I didn‘t like this quite as much as King of Scars, since it relied pretty heavily—especially in the first third—on one of my bookish pet peeves, but Bardugo pulled it off well. And she definitely pulled off a few twists at the end that I didn‘t see coming but was completely satisfied by!

Also… hopefully another book coming soon with more Inej? 😄

A worthy conclusion of the Nikolai duology. I didn‘t love all the places Bardugo took this one, but I was just happy to spend some more time with these characters. Having read through all the Grishaverse books over the past few months, I‘m really impressed by how Bardugo‘s writing improved with the two duologies. The cover of this book is also so gorgeous! Looking forward to another entry since this one definitely ended on a cliffhanger.

persephone1408 Next on my reading list! 🖤🖤 3y
Kimberlone There are cameos from Alina and Kaz and the Crows in this book, and the ending clearly sets up a new adventure that will presumably take us back to Ketterdam in the next book. 3y
