I love how they've added some background and perfectly temporally layered the plot between the books! Mrs. Coulter (shudder) is one of the most fascinating characters in fiction and the little bits of background they give her are (chef's kiss) !

There is going to be a show coming out in April on Netflix that combines the Shadow and Bone trilogy and the Six of Crows duology (it’s going to be called Shadow and Bone) They did an announcement teaser in December that was stunning (you’ll see a crow show up in the teaser as well!) Going by the casting they’ve aged up everyone for the television show. 😊

Thank you so much for the lovely recommendations - accidentally stumbled on your channel and really enjoyed them! Have ordered the two Japanese books you mentioned (you may like The Convenience Store Woman as well!), plus Priory, which I've been avoiding due to some online reviews. Incidentally, if you are into fantasy and strong female characters, there is really no one better than Sarah J Mass for me. LOVED Crescent City, even liked Court of Silver Flames (given Nesta, main character, is REALLY difficult, but this book is her 'scratch under the surface and see everyone is complicated'). Wonderful, compelling stuff. Thank you again!
