    I never read books unless required in school. This was the first series I ever read of my own free will.

    The balance between description and narrative is quite good. You’re able to I you’re the world Leigh has created without growing impatient for the story. Some threads are left unraveled but nothing too disappointing. A lovely moral at the end. A journey I was happy to take, sad to end, and warmed to reminisce.

    This series has got to be the best I’ve read in a long time. I could hardly put it down. The words appear to come alive. The author does so well illustrating the story. My heart shattered for Alina but also felt all her other wonderful emotions throughout the books. LOVE LOVE LOVE!!!
  • Must-read fantasy

    Enthralled from the first to the last chapter. The scenarios never took the predicted ending, but also did not take an undesirable ending. Kept me on my toes and intrigued, constantly wanting to know what happened next. The tv show was fairly congruent with the first book with a little spattering of the second and third book. I liked that they added a side story about the city folk (“The Crows”). Really gives a rounded contrast. All-in-all, I think Shadow and Bone in its entirety is a very well-written, fresh story.
  • Thrilling
