Rule of Wolves

Initially rated it 4 but then reread it and nope. Just what the hell was this?

It almost felt like leigh bardugo wrote 592 pages to convince the darkling fans that hes evil. And yet, she simultaneously proved that ravka could only be saved by him to the point that it IS him who ends up saving it at the end. I wanted to feel happy reading this because i felt starving for more after the Grisha trilogy but i felt that it was better i didnt?

I love the grishaverse. I admire every character, but i will not ignore the characters' stupidity like alina's and the rest. Sorry for the rant.

This deserves less than 3 stars but half are for darkles and the other half for nikolai
