I loved this book. The set of characters was written with so much depth and intrigue. There was adventure, humor, and emotion in the reading of this book. I love Leigh Bardugo's writing so much.

The plot was interesting and the writing and pace made i ...more

Very good book. I didn't read the Grisha trilogy before Six of Crows and I wish I had. Maybe it would explain more backstory to the tensions between the different people in this world. Still really enjoyed this book. I liked that there was romance/non-romance throughout and not drawn out love triangles like many young adult books found these days.

Enjoyable, fast-paced heist (impressive for 450+ pages) that still had me guessing and uncovering plot elements up until the end. Definitely enjoyable!
