Shadow and Bone by Leigh Bardugo · Book review

Cover of book Shadow and Bone
⭐⭐⭐

I read this after I read the quite excellent Netflix adaptation, so I went into it expecting good things but I felt.. underwhelmed? I'm not sure if it's because I knew what was going to happen, but the first person writing style didn't really grip me, it felt a bit dry and the main character Alina was a little bit annoying too (well, just like a real snarky teenager to be fair).
