King of Scars by Leigh Bardugo

Go to review page

So mad at myself for following up the Crows duology with King of Scars, knowing now how much I liked Zoya and Nikolai in the last two books of the S&B trilogy. They read as if I was meant to love them already, but I hadn't yet! I did love the development between Nikolai and Zoya (I didn't expect to even like Zoya after Crooked but catch me with pompoms and her kefta colors on my cheeks now). Nina's storyline was pretty good, but mostly I was cooing over every time she thought about the Crows--especially when she talked about missing Inej, cuz Big Same.

Howl is every drama queen moment I've ever had and Sophie is every fed-up eye-roll I've ever given. I love them dearly. Such a good comfort read.

Maximum fairytale atmosphere--I was immersed. Evangeline is so sweet and hopeful it's sickening, but in a way that grew on me lol

the rumors were true. Passed the 50% mark and was consumed. I love this crew and this lush world so, so much.

A duology I’ll re-shelve knowing I’m gonna revisit them someday.
