About:
GrishaVarse✨It's also a Show on Netflix✨
My note: the book and the show are great! I recommend both watching the show and reading the books, doesn't matter if you see the show first! The books are worth it as much as the show.
( the show is pretty accurate compared to the first book).Writing: the book is written in Alina's POV ( I made a mistake)
It's also easy to read for beginnersRandom quote: "fine, make me your villain"
Enjoy
