Ok sorry, only saw your reply. I actually only read the first few chapters because school has kept us busy. But I'll get to reading it.

My first impression was, "Is Joost a part of the team of six? I can't believe it." To me, he doesn't seem to be anything special. And he wasn't. So then, I wondered what is that first part for? Is that a catalyst for the quest of Kaz's team?

You want to stop at a specific chapter or something? That way, there's no spoilers being mentioned.

I'll be moving to the other thread now. :))

Leigh Bardugo is a new author for me. I did plan to read her other book sometime in the future. A probably distant future because I plan on emptying that to-read list. At least some of it. The two books' BR threads are separate, so... we should probably separate the two books. We go on the other thread first before here.
