Reading Response To Shadow and Bone

        Shadow and Bone was a really, really good, action, romance, suspenseful book.  I't became one of my favorite books. For any of you who don't know what this book is about, I will explain. Shadow and Bone is a book about this girl in Russia named Alina. In her world there are powerful people who are able to make and use forms of magic, that protect or harm others. For thousands of years now there has thin this place called the Unsea that is filled with flesh eating demond creatures. After her armies ship is deployed into the Unsea, she finds out that she has this inner power to cast light wherever she wants it. This drove away the creatures, and she was sent to a castle/ school to learn how to use them. However she does not know the real intentions, on why they are doing it.
     One thing I noticed throughout the book is that she was really stuck in-between witch guy she really loved, her best friend Mal, or the darkling. She constant switched depinding on the aria she was in. As I was reading, I started to notice that I was learning some Russian words, because there were many scattered thought the book. I loved how the author, Leigh Bardugo, took so many features of Russia and used them to create this mystical, ancient, fantasy world. I was so mad though that she left me on a cliff hanger. I truly loved the book.
