This book left me speechless.
Leigh Bardugo is an instant buy and read author for me and this book didn’t disappoint (even if I put it off for years).
I think this is her most well crafted book I’ve read (and I’ve read everything but Hell Bent). The use of time and perspective change allowed the characters to leap from the page and be seen as the full people they are. The size of the cast was perfect, allowing some to be side characters while the main cast dominated the page in a captivating way.
I also love a messy and brutal woman so you can bet Alex is a new beloved character of mine.

This book made me sick to my stomach at every turn of the page, made my skin crawl, and cry over fates I already knew. I can’t wait for Hell Bent!

The ending was quick and messy in a perfect way. It had me reeling and guessing always at what came next. I can’t wait for the gentleman Demon 🤭😍.
