Shadow and Bone by Leigh BardugoMy rating: 5 of 5 stars
This was an amazing book. One of the best I read this year. Very original, very well written and the characters are engaging and make you care about them and the world they inhabit. Very different in a very good way. Not your typical dystopian young adult novel. There are great things in store for Leigh Bardugo.
You can also feel comfortable with your teen son or daughter reading this. There is no language and there is a touch of romance, but nothing that is out of bounds for the 12-18 crowd. Adults will love this as well and will be ready for the next adventure. I am just glad that it's sequel, Siege and Storm and the final book in the trilogy, Ruin and Rising are out and ready to enjoy.
Word has it that Ms. Bardugo is working on a new series based in this same fantasy world.
