Read this after the netlix series. The differences are interesting, some aspects I liked better in the book, other things improved in the series
Overall, an easy, enjoyable read, but a bit boring after watching the series. Still looking forward to the next books, as I like how the story is built and the writing is pleasant.
Spoiler
the fact that Alina is half-shu in the series, is genius!Overall, an easy, enjoyable read, but a bit boring after watching the series. Still looking forward to the next books, as I like how the story is built and the writing is pleasant.
