Like I was 87% sure I wasn’t gonna want to read the third book but like now I have to? ( ) I loved everything about this second installment that I loved about the first, with a couple of brief and not-so-important caveats: 1. I will never feel right about a white male author writing sex scenes for female queer characters 2. While the story and pacing was absolutely amazing, I felt I lost track of my sympathy for Mia... but only because Kristoff's characters are so well-developed I found myself interested about and cheering for each of them. I'd still give this a solid 5 stars. This man writes some truly beautiful prose and gives such a refreshing take on story-telling that I find myself envying his style. Truly inspired after reading this! If you haven't read Kristoff, you're in for the ride of your life, and what are you waiting for? If you have, you're probably shaking your head at my tardiness in singing his praises. Non è morto ciò che può vivere in eterno… (Lovecraft) "So che sei destinata a molto più di questo" disse. "La tua verità giace sepolta nella tomba. Eppure dipingi le tue mani di rosso per loro, quando dovresti dipingere i cieli di nero." (35) I cieli ci concedono solo una vita, ma grazie ai libri ne viviamo mille. (71) "Il problema di essere un bibliotecario qua dentro è che esistono alcune lezioni che non puoi imparare dai libri…" (74) I loved book one so much that I rearranged my reading challenge prompts so I could fit in the rest of the series now. I have to admit that I wasn't sure about this one as I was reading it, even halfway through. I felt like he was ignoring major plot points (and more interesting plot points!!) to stick in a whole new excuse to continue to train and fight, just so we can keep training and fighting! There is so much to explore in this world and about our MC so why aren't we doing that? I was getting frustrated but then that ending! And yes, a cliffhanger and a big one! And YES, I immediately checked out book 3 and will start that tomorrow! 1e deel: jeugd en vooral opleiding 2e deel: eerste twee banen. ;) Bij trilogiën weet je dat de hoofdrolspeler blijft leven. dan weet je hoe de gevechten lp leven en dood aflopen. veel gevechten, te veel. Een beetje een nieuwe omgeving, oude bekenden en nieuwe mensen waarvan je doorheen het boek erachter komt of ze uiteindelijk vrienden of vijanden blijken. Mia haar eigen naam blijft lang onbekend. De eigenschappen van de schaduwen woren iets duidelijker. drie nieuwen daarvan komt ze tegen. Het hele boek is ze een gladiatorslaaf, ze gaat treetje voor treetje haar doeltrap op. vraagt zich door anderen af of het het waard is. Benieuwd hoe de verhoudingen in deel drie zullen zijn. ingen anmeldelser | tilføj en anmeldelse

HTML: The second thrilling installment of the award-winning Nevernight Chronicle, from New York Times bestselling author Jay Kristoff. In a land where three suns almost never set, a ruthless assassin continues her quest for vengeance against the powers who destroyed her family. Mia Corvere has found her place among the Blades of Our Lady of Blessed Murder, but many in the Red Church hierarchy think she's far from earned it. Plying her bloody trade in a backwater of the Republic, she's no closer to ending the men who destroyed her familia; in fact, she's told directly that Consul Scaeva is off limits. But after a deadly confrontation with an old enemy, Mia's suspicions about the Red Church's true motives begin to grow. When it's announced that Scaeva will be making a rare public appearance at the conclusion of the grand games in Godsgrave, Mia defies the Church and sells herself to a gladiatorial collegium for a chance to finally end him. Upon the sands of the arena, Mia finds new allies, bitter rivals, and more questions about her strange affinity for the shadows. But as conspiracies unfold within the collegium walls, and the body count rises, Mia will be forced to choose between love and revenge, and uncover a secret that could change the very face of her world. .No library descriptions found. |
