Rating: ⭐⭐⭐⭐


Favorite book of the series. This book actually managed to made me feel something!!


SPOILERS AHEAD. PROCEED WITH CAUTION













Even Baghra likes Nikolai. Nikolai world domination!! Talking about Nikolai, I felt so meh about the ending!!!!! It didn't wow me or anything (except when I thought Leigh Bardugo was gonna kill off Mal but didn't) and it felt too rushed...


List of my favorite quotes in this book:

"You were meant for more than me, and I'll die fighting to give it to you. But please don't ask me to pretend it's easy."


"I.. I don't understand half of what goes on around me. I don't get jokes or sunsets or poetry, but I know metal ... Beauty was your armour. Fragile stuff, all show. But what's inside you? That's steel. It's brave and unbreakable. And it doesn't need fixing."


"Why do battles always have to be so early?"


"Maybe you're hungry. I always get mean when I'm hungry." "Are you hungry all the time?"


"He's going to think I stockpile vicious old women.""


"Go where you're wanted." "That's hardly limiting."
