Shadow and Bone by Leigh Bardugo
Did not finish book.
3.0
After careful consideration I am not going to finish this book.
It's not bad, the world that it has built it's cool, I really like the magic system, and the atmosphere it's something I enjoyed.
Yet, I did not manage to connect with any of the characters, at all.
Every page I turned I turned with one thought in mind "I want to finish this now and read something else" because although I wasn't hating it (and I don't have any reasons to hate it) I was not enjoying the story, and specially towards the end, even when the tension was up I was not feeling tense, I was bored.
I will probably try to give it another opportunity in another time, even try the other books in the series and in the Grishaverse, but for now I really don't want it anymore.
