A review by wanderlustlover
The Demon in the Wood by Leigh Bardugo

5.0

2021 Winter (February);

2021 Grishaverse Show Prep Read/Reread in preparation for the tv show dropping in late April 2021. I totally still agree with the little bit I read before, and it was very much retracing steps for someone who rarely does a reread, but I still love meeting The Darkling as a child, and seeing how rare/dangerous his family's gift is.

2016;
This whole series is going to be rated in fives. I hope you are ready.

I am starting to fall in deep love with [a:Leigh Bardugo|4575289|Leigh Bardugo|https://images.gr-assets.com/authors/1534446099p2/4575289.jpg] and I need to read everything she has after reading this one and [b:The Tailor|17997353|The Tailor (The Shadow and Bone Trilogy, #1.5)|Leigh Bardugo|https://i.gr-assets.com/images/S/compressed.photo.goodreads.com/books/1369842991l/17997353._SX50_.jpg|25254362] after finished book one and the folktales. I am so moved and so heart wrenched by this inside like at The Darklings' childhood, his mother, the glimpse at where their people were before everything changed (previous to the main story).
