44 // Fantasy // The Shadow and Bone Trilogy by Leigh Bardugo // Book Review

After putting off reading the Shadow and Bone trilogy for years, I finally read the fantastic series and am so excited to be able to review the entire trilogy today!  Just a fair warning that there will most likely be spoilers for the series as the episode progresses since the books build off one another.
