"I always figured I'd die young...why not do it shoving my foot up that murderer's ass." That ending?!???!!! 😱😱😱Actual rating 3.75 starsI, as so many other goodreaders, was BEYOND excited when I heard this book was coming out, I ordered it from the library as soon as I could, and my hopes were sky high.There are 4 POVs, so I'll review based on each character.Isaak: I can't reveal too much of Isaak's POV because spoilers. But he is a guard in Nikolai's palace, and when his chance comes to serve[softly, from under a pile of blankets] what the fuck was that ending?I finished this book and the moment dithered in timorous silence, searing and numb. It was as though the world was suspended for an intermission, waiting until the curtain is lifted and the next act can begin. Disbelief came first, then surprise. Then the full scope of the ending struck me with a pang of deep resentment, that this extraordinary, inexplicable thing should happen.Look, I just want it documented somewhere that
The more time that passes...the more I realize that I did not and do not care about this book.I was excited for it, for no real reason. Not only did I not finish the Grisha trilogy, I DNFed the second book (one of maybe 7 times I have ever ever done that in my whole life). I actually could not even force myself through it.I had a passing interest in Nikolai, but thats mostly because everyone on the internet screams about him and there are VERY few things I love more than jumping on a bandwagon.
Nikolai had always understood that he and Ravka were the same. He just hadnt understood how: He was not the crying child or even the drowning man. He was the forever soldier, eternally at war, unable to ever lay down his arms and heal. Maybe because he knew he and his country were the same MY SPOILERY DISCUSSION WHICH TALKS ABOUT THIS BOOK MORE IN DEPTH CAN BE FOUND HERE It was angry, hungry, full of broken animal longing. Though Nikolai might not like it, those things were all a part of him

This just came out today!!I can't wait to find out what happens to my favorite character... but apparently I have to be a reasonable adult and finish Crooked Kingdom first :/
Most of us can hide our greatest hurts and longings. Its how we survive each day. We pretend the pain isnt there, that we are made of scars instead of wounds. Oh friends, it has been a long while since I read the concluding events in Ruin and Rising! Honestly? I probably really would have benefited from doing a reread. Yet, I will be the first to admit that I was complete Darkling trash back in the day, and I have grown a lot as a person and realized that he is someone that shouldnt be
