Game of Thrones meets Ocean's Eleven in this brand-book in the world of the Grisha by New York Times-bestselling author Leigh Bardugo.

Ketterdam: a bustling hub of international trade where anything can be had for the right price—and no one knows that better than criminal prodigy Kaz Brekker. Kaz is offered a chance at a deadly heist that could make him rich beyond his wildest dreams. But he can't pull it off alone...

A convict with a thirst for revenge.

A sharpshooter who can't walk away from a wager.

A runaway with a privileged past.

A spy known as the Wraith.

A Heartrender using her magic to survive the slums. 

A thief with a gift for unlikely escapes. 

Six dangerous outcasts. One impossible heist. Kaz's crew is the only thing that might stand between the world and destruction—if they don't kill each other first.


OHMYGOD
OHMYGOD
OHMYGOD
OH. MY. GOD.

HOW COULD SUCH BEAUTY EXIST I AM DYING. I LOVE THAT COVER SO MUCH.


DO YOU SEE THOSE TOWERS? DO YOU? I DO.

So basically today was a normal Friday the 13th, putting Fifty Shades Of Grey aside. BUT THEN, I OPEN INSTAGRAM, AND GLORY MEETS MY EYES.

If you didn't know this already, I'm kind of obsessed with the Grisha Trilogy.

 Just a teeny tiny bit. Ruin And Rising was my favorite book of 2014. The whole series has a very special place in my heart. So obviously, I'm fucking excited about this.
this gif is me all day, everyday

Batshit crazy characters? count me fucking in.

"The main character is a boy named Kaz Brekker—con artist, killer, gangleader, thief. He’s horrible." - Leigh Bardugo
I LOVE HIM ALREADY.

So other than the glorious cover, we've been getting some sneak peaks ever since the book was announced, so here's couple of things for you to get excited.


This is the Six Of Crows Dice. I've never seen anything more beautiful in my life.

Character reveals from Leigh Bardugo's Instagram : @lbardugo :








SO COOL. So I decided to put them all together because I was so freaking hype when they all came out I was out of freaking control :



BUT THEN:



DO YOU FUCKING SEE THAT? Look at me being all chill and shit.


Still continuing on with my fangirling, I went to the series' website and took the "Which Grisha are you?" quiz, which you can take here. 

And my result was:



Literally, dead. 

That's obviously not a good thing but I fucking love The Darkling so much I'm so freaking happy about this. I didn't even know this'll be one of the options.

If you didn't know, Leigh Bardugo is a multi-talented person. She wrote and sang a song based on The Grisha trilogy, which I am absolutely obsessed with. Check it out:


Isn't it awesome??

Last thing: You can read an excerpt from Six Of Crows here, if you are into that type of stuff. I don't think I'll read it. I'm scared I'll get too attached, basically, and go all like: 



Anyways, I think that's all. If we start talking about the fancasting I won't sleep tonight. Thank you for reading all the way to here, wow you're committed. 

Also, I just found a folder on my laptop with my favorite Grisha fanart, if you want to see them please, do tell.

I love you, *whispers the darkling's name*.

Love Triangle? Mysterious Box? | Insurgent Movie Discussion



The anticipation is real. Insurgent is coming out in March 20 and if I don't talk about it with someone I'll probably explode so that's what I am doing today...

So before you go on reading all the points I want to talk about know that I'll spoil some parts of the book. So most likely you need to read Insurgent before you can actually read this. 

Also, I might be really feisty here, sorry.

Let's hustle.












1) Sticking to the book:

The controversy over the movie is mostly because of this point. Everyone thinks that the movie is very different than the book, therefore, the movie won't be as good. I have two debates for this:
 1- For me, the book being different from the book is a good thing. I wouldn't want to waste my money to see a movie I already memorized by heart in theaters, to be completely honest. And if you change nothing in the book you're honestly just being lazy. An Adaptation is not a the book coming to life rather than a movie based off of a book.
If they do this right, this could be great.
 2- The trailer is very deceiving. I noticed that they'er showing us all the things that are different from the book but I don't think they're straying from the book plot as much as they make it out to be.


2) The damn box:


This box became more famous than the movie itself. I think it's freaking cool. I think it's just a more interesting take on the disc(?) that held the video of ya know, Tris' ancestor or whatever. 
So I hope that we're over that shit, thank you.


3) Tris' fucking hair:


If I hear just one more thing about her hair I'm gonna cut a bitch. She cuts it in the damn book too and I don't care how you imagined it, this's what you get.
And honestly, I like this hair on Shailene much more. The long hair didn't seem right on her. It just seemed to drown her, it would've been better if it was layered but now it's gone so it's cool.

4) Naomi Watts as Evelyn


Okay, so at first when I saw the casting picture of Naomi I thought she was perfect. A little bit roughing up and she'd be the perfect Evelyn.

But, Let's be honest . This:









This is just stupid. She looks younger than fucking Tris. what the hell. 
And she gets the blue eyes? Not Four or Marcus but her? 
Wow, that's some confusing shit right there.


5) Ending Changes:

So if you've read Allegiant, you know what happens in the end. And if you haven't read it, you know something happens. (no spoilers)

Do I think they'll change the ending?
Right now, almost 80% sure they will. Just everything they'er doing and mostly because of the new character (we'll get to him). 

Am I sad they'll change it?
I'm really undecided on this. I won't be sad if they don't change it, but if they do change it which is most likely, I won't be upset either. 

6) New character and love triangle rumors:

It's not going to be a love triangle, just clarifying. I mean we'll get to the jealousy and relationship drama shit in Allegiant. 


So, when I saw this, just like everybody else I was like "who the fuck is Edgar?"

Now, the only information on this 'Edgar' is that he's a really bad guy with a little charm. So maybe he tries to get close to Tris or something (?)
Or like they just added a villain just because (?)
Who knows? I don't really think he'll be important in this movie particularly. But, I guess we'll see. 


7) Tris losing her damn shirt:

Ya'll are the most hilarious people in the world. Who fucking cares?? So she loses her shirt, that does not mean they sleep together. God, get over yourselves.
Although it'll be funny if it was like a simulation or a dream, that'd be the best thing they've done.


I guess that'll cover it for now. I leave you with a couple of things that I loved:
