If you want to casually sob every few pages just read the second book in the Shadow & Bone trilogy. This world of magic, love, loss, & redefining everything is well made, well written, & easy to get lost in. I have no clue how this story will end, which ultimately makes it an infuriatingly wonderful fantasy series. I am here for Alina’s growth and journey of self discovery plus this wicked confusing love triangle (square?)
