She will become one of the world’s greatest heroes: WONDER WOMAN. But first she is Diana, Princess of the Amazons. And her fight is just beginning. . . .
Diana longs to prove herself to her legendary warrior sisters. But when the opportunity finally comes, she throws away her chance at glory and breaks Amazon law—risking exile—to save a mere mortal. Even worse, Alia Keralis is no ordinary girl and with this single brave act, Diana may have doomed the world.

Alia just wanted to escape her overprotective brother with a semester at sea. She doesn’t know she is being hunted. When a bomb detonates aboard her ship, Alia is rescued by a mysterious girl of extraordinary strength and forced to confront a horrible truth: Alia is a Warbringer—a direct descendant of the infamous Helen of Troy, fated to bring about an age of bloodshed and misery.

Together, Diana and Alia will face an army of enemies—mortal and divine—determined to either destroy or possess the Warbringer. If they have any hope of saving both their worlds, they will have to stand side by side against the tide of war.

Hello wonderful people 😊
I hope you are all having an amazing day 🙌 What are you guys reading? Please let me know, I would love to add more books to my TBR 😆 📚

Everything about this book was amazing.
The settings, the characters & the plot. Leigh Bardugo has a way with words that makes people feel emotions and transports them to the places & worlds she creates. I´m a fan of books that start with a kind of scene that is fundamental for the rest of the story. The kind of scene that leaves us craving for more and we want to keep reading the book until the very last page only to stop before the end because WE DON´T WANT THE STORY TO END and that´s what happened with this book. Something that I really liked about the beginning of the book was that it started in a way that made me want to keep reading more🤓
It started with Diana putting law aside to save a life, what´s better than that?! 😎
One of the things that I admire about Diana is how brave she is. She risked exile and her life when she saved Alia, but I am glad she did it, because with that action she did something else, she prove
TO HERSELF how capable she was of doing the things she wanted to do!
She  is definitely one of my favorite characters ever. She is smart, amazing, funny and brave.
She is a role model.

 There`s a lot of action in this book. There were times where I found myself laughing at something the characters said or at something they did, they were just so funny and there were other times when I was like 😱 😨 😰 😢 😥 😎
IN THAT ORDER LOL.
Diana as well as her friends, Alia, Nim and Theo kept surprising me till the very end.

Alia, Nim and Theo are my new favorite characters, I loved their friendship!
They have an amazing  personality and I loved how Nim and Theo were always saying things to each other,  sometimes it was funny & other times not so much 🙊 And when they realized the reason why they can´t really stand each other… Well 🙊, I didn´t see that coming, it didn´t cross my mind and I was very surprised!
Alia has a very special power. A power that not everyone likes and would like to destroy.
Nim loves fashion and is super funny and Theo is the sweetest and funniest boy ever, plus he´s super intelligent, he´s perfect! They are an amazing group of friends for sure!

I ship Alia and Theo, they are perfect for each other❤️

Wonder Woman is undoubtedly one of my new favorite books of all time. It was absolutely amazing and perfect❤️ and I´m sure I will read it again soon. It´s a book that once you finish, you will be thinking about it again and again. This book has everything I love: Friendship, Jokes, Love & Family and there was treason too…😱😱😱

    I have been waiting for your review on this!! The twist in the story was mind-blowing, Leigh is a magician of trickery! I really wish this wasn’t a standalone but I always want more of Leigh’s stuff so that’s not surprising haha.

    Awesome review, lovely!
