Beautiful cover art. Love the font too.

I agree with every word, OP. I was so happy to see the Crows show up, but in all honestly, theirs is the much better, stronger story overall and their use to flesh out S&B was awkward. 6 OF CROWS more than deserved its own series.

So much this. I just got these two books from my local library and I'm already SO HOOKED. The librarian tried to tell me i needed to read the Shadow & Bones ones first to learn about stuff, blah blah, but no way in hell am I subjecting myself to that. I've seen the series and read the Wiki, I'm good.

Everyone who read both series knows that SoC is vastly superior to SaB.

I'm crossing my fingers we get a SoC spinoff on netflix soon.

I've only read the first one and it wasn't good. It was cliched and the characters were paper thin. Not only that, but the book was full of Mary Sue/ Gary Stu moments and it made me cringe. Bad YA is bad.

[(Anonymous)]

They are so much the best part of the adaptation, though! Last week I saw someone asking if anyone had made a supercut of Shadow and Bone with only the Crows parts!

But I think it's fine to have them be part of the bigger show - the main storyline parts can handle all of the boring exposition while the Crows get to run around the edges having fun.

I've not read the books, only watched the show, but the Crow trio were my favourite characters in season 1 by far and I didn't hate Alina or her story I felt it was just... very standard fantasy fare? Which isn't a bad thing but it wasn't massively appealing for me, it was fine. My main issue was how she had almost no agency at all in s1, which was deliberate with the whole Kirigan thing sure, but I hope she drives her own plot more in s2 because I like her well enough, I just want a bit more oomf from her is all, lol. But I'm most looking forward to the Crow trio again, they were great and I do agree they deserve to be more than the B plot in the show.

I secretly think those two books were ghostwritten. Nobody's novel writing skills could have improved that much in just a few years.

Lololol Sorry this happened to you

OP might I suggest Wellington Paranormal you get all the same fly-on-the-wall and ride-along fun without it being actual copaganda because they're chasing down ghosts and werewolves and slime creatures.

A man who can turn into a cat never actually turns into a cat in the story?! This is so fucked up, what the fuck. The story better be good otherwise, because I'm disappointed so far.

I agree with you. Also particularly on the "healthier to achieve" bit. I don't think we talk enough about the damage done to men by the absurd body standards actors are expected to achieve (whether the actors themselves, or the standard it expresses to others).

Brendan Fraser is 6 feet 3 inches (190cm), if anyone else was blown away with how short the other people look in that photo.

Transcript

[(Anonymous)]

If I ship a pairing, I will always want them to, 1) fall in love, and 2) be okay.

I know for a lot of people the toxicity of a messed up ship is the entire appeal, and I respect that. I just can't relate. I'm emotionally incapable of not rooting for characters I ship, even when they're horrible.

Me: Oh they're analogous with Nazis? They commit profound human rights violations? They show no sign of feeling remorseful? Okay, but why are they like that? What is the wound at the core of them? Why are their coping mechanisms so maladaptive? And could their feelings for each other be the thing that snowballs into an avalanche of character growth for both of them?

Me, after pretending to think it over like a reasonable person: Yes, that could happen, I have decided.
