Shadow and Bone is now ranked number one in the U.S. on Netflix. Shadow and Bone is a fantasy show based on the books by Leigh Bardugo. It is a great show with amazing characters and plot twists that shock the audience. 

The plot revolves around a teenage orphan named Alina, who works as a mapmaker on the front lines for a chronically war-torn nation known as Ravka. In the heat of war, she learns that she is a member of the Grisha, a race of humans with supernatural abilities. 

I would rate this 8/10 because it is cringy because of the relationships, but it does have great plot twists. The part that drew me in was where Alina discovers that she is Grisha and the Darkling cuts her arm. I only really wanted to watch it because of the actor who plays The Darkling, Ben Barnes. I am absolutely in love with him, but that’s not the point. The point is that it is kind of boring, but the cast makes it interesting. 

Many people recommend reading the books before watching the show. The order of the books is Shadow and Bone, Siege and Storm, Ruin and Rising. The author has another series of books that begins with Six of Crows.  The show mixes with the Six Of Crows books. 

This show is recommended for teens and young adults who like fantasy and medieval themes.
