oh my friggin frig.  i’m very sorry because right now i am unable to form real words to express my amazement and love for the Shadow and Bone trilogy.
i just finished Ruin and Rising.  I’m genuinely unsure now if the Six of Crows duology can remain my all time favourite.  (at least they’re both by the same author, in the same universe.)
aannnnnyway i’m gonna go cry in a corner now because my life has just gotten so much better now that i’ve finished these books.

History Is All You Left Me
Finished this gem already! I really love his style of writing and the way he develops his characters; both in this book and They Both Die at the End.
I love how what I thought was going to happen, kind of did but with a twist and it didn't end there? Does that make sense? I wound love to talk about it in more detail if anyone is interested, message me!!!
I'm giving this 4/5 - the only reason I can't give it 5/5 is my own personal emotions that semi-sort-of-not-really relate to Griffin's.
Next I'll be reading: Ruin and Rising by Leigh Bardugo- super excited to finish off this trilogy and see where Alina's fate takes her!!!

Wow it's been a minute
Not going to lie, I forgot I had this account!!! Found it at the right time though, I've just come out of a major reading slump!!! In the last week I've read:
Shadow and Bone by Leigh Bardugo
They Both Die at the End by Adam Silvera
The Whistler by John Grisham
Now I've just started Seige and Storm, the second book after Shadow and Bone, which I had to wait to be shipped because none of my local bookstores had it in stock!!!
I'm very much excited to see how Alina's story continues, I'll keep you posted (if anyone is left active here - like I said, it's been a long time 😊)

Is it just me or do other people get homesick from books? Like, you miss the comforting feel of the characters, the fandom, and the world created by the author?
