Shadow and Bone by Leigh Bardugo (Book 1 in series) was book 31 and my final read of 2021 (Dec 28th, to be exact)!
I gave it a rating of 3.5 stars. I had wanted to read this book for a long time (and definitely before watching the Netflix Series). I wasn’t really sure what I was expecting but it was an entertaining read. A richly imagined world of magic (I would have liked to see more), the characters were relatable and helped the story come to life. I know very little about Russian folklore and mythology, but this story has peaked my inner historian’s interest. I can wait to see where the story takes Alina next!
I am an aspiring author, military wife, and mother of four boys. In my free time, I am a voracious reader and lover of large cups of tea. While I enjoy reading everything, my favorite genre is fantasy. One of my hobbies is reading and reviewing books on various online platforms.
I have dabbled in short stories and writing poetry, publishing a small book of my poems in 2022, with an independent publisher.
I enjoy keeping the world up-to-date on her writing, reading, and random thoughts on my blog.I am also currently writing my first novel.
