"fine. make me your villain"
see the thing is, my expectations weren't that high from the beginning anyway, so i'm not surprised to say that i didn't enjoy it as much. in fact, i only read it because it has been on my shelves for nearly two years & i want to finally read six of crows & king of scars
did i fall for the darkling? yes
would i do it again? also yes
"i've been waiting for you a long time, alina.
you and i are going to change the world"
i mean, come on.. if anyone would’ve said that to me, i would fall head over heels for him 😮💨
i've heard a lot about zoya & when she finally appeared in the book, i was a bit surprised that she wasn't that nice but i guess she'll grow on me and oh, oh my god i love genya (my beloved) 💕💘💗💞💖
— it wasn't a bad book but it wasn't that great either. anyways, watch me speed read through siege & storm because i want to meet nikolai 🤭

@aliki hope so too!! i‘m excited
@ingrid can’t wait to start this one ❤️🔥
the show is so diff from the grishaverse tho 😭
@monique i heard that a lot now 😭 but my physical tbr is painfully long & the books are sitting on my shelf so might as well get it over with 💀
I need to read the trilogy before watching the rest of the show as well😭😭 Hope you enjoy it!!<33
@lilyya crossing my fingers!! hope you like it as well xx
I tried to do this and gave up and just watched the show for the six of crows instead 🥲
I liked this one a lot
@jenna watch me do that as well lol 😀
@feyza this gave me hope
that’s the only reason i bought it too 😭
@angel we‘re all the same huh 😭
So excited for you! Hope you’ll love it 🫶🫶🫶
ooo i'm thinking of finally starting siege and storm soon and i've heard lots about nikolai so i'm excited to meet him!
Hi Vanessa could you read ” Live your best lie ” its like gossip girls/ a good girls gudie to murder . Its about a a girl who name is summer that got murderd in her own halloween party 😀
Omg you’re gonna love it
I thought the show was better than the books (at least season 1). Hope you´ll enjoy :)
@niki i‘ll put it on my tbr :)
@mcdoodle i‘m really excited to continue the series 💕
@leonie just started season 1 and can already confirm that you’re right 😭
I love this series! Ruin and rising is definitely the best
@elin this relieved me because siege & storm is meh😭
The series also gets better over time, the first one was my least favorite
is it necessary to read the shadow & bone trilogy before reading six of crows duet? in my defense, I watched the show so I already have some knowledge 😭 I’m so conflicted
@elyanna imo you should read the shadow and bone series because it’s rly good, but if you don’t want to read it before six of crows you don’t have to. If you want to continue on to the king of scars duology after the six of crows duology i reccomend reading sab first
@mcdoodle i‘m currently on the last book! book two was definitely better than book one
@elyanna yes i agree with @elin!! i mean i haven’t read soc yet so idk HOW necessary it is but i do know that it’s helpful to understand the world better if you have :)
the first one was so underwhelming for me but I can’t wait for you to meet nikolai <3
Same I want to read this just so i can read six of crows 😭 and darkling is just 🛐🔥
Love this review!! I hope to see you meet our prince Nikolai and how 3 of them was going to shake the whole Ravka. And yessss I love darkling too, who doesn't love him? I mean look at your first quote in the review, if that isn't a thirst trap idk what is 🤭🤭🤭🤭
@vee @elin !! thank you guys!!! I did plan on reading the king of scars duet as well so I’ll read the shadow & bone trilogy first then!!!!
@zaylee i‘m so giddy and excited 🤭🤭
@ri we‘re all the same huh 😭
@vio thank you so so much vio!!💗darkling was really something else 😮💨👏🏼
@deema thank you so much deema 💗 you make me excited for soc, i can’t wait to read your updates on crooked kingdom 🫶🏼
@elyanne enjoy!! i hope you like it babes xx
i think zoya is more likeable in king of scars that’s what i’ve heard mostly!!
The first quote lives rent in my head for ages😭 awesome review, hun! I’m glad you overall enjoyed it!💙
@prapti i cant wait to see her and nikolai together!!!😮💨
@lilyya same girl same 😭 thank you ily 💗💗
@ingrid thank you so much love 💗
I really need to start the series soon!! I love your reviews 🫶🏽
lmao the patience you have >>> i skipped this and read soc directly 🥲 can't wait for you to read that tho!
I’ve had this series on my bookshelf for months but haven’t gotten the motivation to read it, so I can relate LOLand everyone seems to love soc & ck way more than this triology :0
great review though vee !! 💗
NO CAUSE IM ALSO WANTING TO READ THIS SERIES FOR NIKOLAI-
I’ve seen some of his quotes and fan art and let’s just say I’m invested ?!()&@🧎♀️
Honestly, ‘fine make me your villain’ is all the convincing I need to read this. Great review 🖤
@mk yess, they’re okay so far!! the things we do to read soc 🤭
@maya ikr *be proud of me*
