i need a book that hits as hard as preachers daughter
Nikolai Lantsov periodically dropping poetic bangers like "I am greedy for the sight of you" and "I will love her from my grave" is my favorite thing about the Grishaverse actually, like this man has it SO bad for Zoya that he cannot stop himself from obsessing over her blue hair ribbon and composing a mental album of angsty love ballads in her honor at every opportune moment
i still think about kaz everytime i check if i still have my wallet/keys
NIKOLAI LANTSOV & ZOYA NAZYALENSKY Shadow and Bone, ‘No Mourners’
She’d been too afraid to say yes to him, to show him the truth of her longing, to admit that from the first time she’d seen him, she’d known he was the hero of all her aunt’s stories, the boy with the golden spirit full of light and hope. All Saints, Zoya wanted to be near that light, she wanted to feel the warmth of it for as long as she could.
the streets are saying SAB got cancelled because eric (showrunner / head writer) was one of the spokesman of WAG and netflix got pissed with him and did not want to pay the usual payroll increase that most shows have in the third season... i swear, if this is true i will be on national news.
