About the grishaverse content I said I’d post:

I won’t make a post about Mathias. I said I’d talk about his character arc I think, but my motivation was killed when I read hsi anti clamatic death.

I also won’t rant about Nina, I just don’t like/care about her that much, I’m sorry Nina stans.

I’ll make a post about Kaz and Jesper friendship, basically explaning why Kaz is a bad friend (I think I’m only invested in this friendship becuase Jesper likes Kaz so much so for extention I also kind of like Kaz).

I’ll problaby make a post about the Asylum thing and assistive technology in the grishaverse.

I will make a post about Wylan and his father relationship.

I wanna make a post about Colm Fahey because he is my favorite character, but I have no idea what to talk about. So I’ll problaby won’t do it.

I also would like to make a post about Jesper and Inej friendship and Wylan and Jesper relationship, but I also don’t know what to talk about them.

I’ll also make a post about Kuwei and Wylan.

About Shadow and Bone I’m in the last two chapters, and I’ll post my final thougths about the book after I read them. But the last time I read it was like two weeks ago. 

And for now those are the things I wanna talk about. I think that if Matthias death hadn’t been so horrible, I’d talk about more things. 

Best regards,

Me.

Ps. I have no idea when I’m gonna post those things, I procastinate a lot.

so I finished ROW

these are my personal thougths so spoilers below the cut!

Well first of all the things i loved! zoyalai! I'm so happy happy, god I love them. Nina´s chapters didn't feel as they dragged and were boring as they wee in king of scars, I loved her relationship with Hanne. The Darkling pov made some sense and was in character for some times... bear with me okay... we got to see how he felt for alina, and how he felt human with her: "Why did you go to her? Because with her he was human again. She had once been naive, lonely, desperate for approval, all the things that had made it so easy for him to manipulate his soldiers in the past. So how had she bested him? Sheer stubbornness. That pragmatic impulse that had allowed her to survive the orphanage, to endure so many years without using her power. Something more. He'd known the name for it once, a hundred lifetimes ago." I love Alina so much and see how her stubbornness defeated him, it just so, wonderful. Also he looks for kindship and us seeing his loneliness was also cool. And he retaking his own name, which was tattooed in his heart was so good in terms of characterizing. His pov was still a bit inconsistent and there was not need for him to be brought back, but we got to see his head for the first time since he was 13 and I always wanted that (i would pay a heavy amount of money for his pov int the trilogy). Also the banter between Nikolai and Aleksander was just so funny Now... *sighs* THIS BOOK WAS TOO CROWDED In terms of POVs and in what's happening this was A LOT... Also, every time feels like is so author driving instead of plot/character driven... its so much about how the author wants to take you to a certain point and it has felt that way since the trilogy... six of crows just blends perfectly and it confuses me how LB can´t handle the characters of the first trilogy as well. Alina... I really love her and the hate she got in the trilogy was undeserved in my opinion, I always appreciated her so i was excited for her cameo... but that wasn't her... she was totally OOC. Remember when the last thing we heard from her lips was: “Aleksander," I whispered. A boy's name, given up. Almost forgotten.” She literally asks him how should she call him now. If LB wanted to downplay darklina since she has been doing she didn't need to write a whole duology for that. Is like the writing is screaming at me telling me I should have hated the darkling and is punishing me for finding him more compelling that m**. And also Zoya can turn into a dragon... I felt it coming since KOS but god that felt like a fever dream and wow the changes she introduced KOS it completely changed so much of the worldbuilding i still haven't process it. Now again... what was the reason about David? WHAT WAS THE REASON? Genya went through so much why couldn't she have this? his dead served no purpose besides a good man dying and making us feel hollow and Genya and he deserved so much better. I always loved the Zoya as queen idea and aesthetic and i was happy it happened but "The Dragon Queen" mmm... okay... it just feels like this was never Nikolai´s duology it was HER story and while i love her it feels like Nikolai deserved better, just more focus? it feels like this was zoya's book and nikolai was a secondary character in my opinion.
