Yes it's true that even though this was setting in the city there is also it's own atmosphere that could have been described more. This wasn't so full of action and here would have been room for more description.

I'm not commenting as much as I usually do, but this book just can't make me put it down to comment lol. Should be learning for my exams and following classes, but oh well. I've missed discussing things with you, since others don't really respons to my many comments lol :p

Yes, there are some names I recognised, and others, that I know about from reading friends' status updates. Yeah, they were portrayed like they were really familiar with some of our characters, somehow?
I've read the first one, and somehow it just wasn't as good as this series....mainly because this one focuses more on the heist itself, and just things other than romance (not to say this doesn't focus on romance, because wow this has an awesome romance), but that one focused mainly on the romance, and there was love triangle drama and such......
I've been wanting to read the second one, so if you feel like reading that series after this one, I'd love to discuss the first book with you, and BR the second one if you want :)

Ah, yes, I was waiting for you to get there!! (view spoiler)
Same, really, but I suspect you'll be commenting a lot more in the next few chapters ;)
Awww, same! :) I love replying to comments! And so I love lots of comments to reply to!
Danique wrote: "I am also just realizing that we kinda got a major spoiler about the Grishaverse books if I'm not mistaken, since the main character in those books is Alina and I think that Grisha who changed Wyla..."Yes, but I'm not sure about that....I remember something I read that mentioned that this book is set some hundred or so years after the first series, but I'm not sure. Also, I'm not sure whether she dies in the course of the series, or just dies. Because here we see her called Saint (can't remember the exact word for this, Sankt?) Alina, so was she like alive some time back and become a saint later after her death, or ....
I can't remember where I was going with this. So I'm just stopping here, but long story short, it's a kinda spoiler. I think.

Sounds good, I'm not sure when I'll be able to read the first one, but I will surely let you know! I hear mixed stories about it as well, but I hope not.

It'll get better. It will get worse then it'll get better.
You will find that the SoC fandom just doesn't talk about this ending. Like, at all. So this was just such a great surprise and I expected Nina to do something about it, but then it didn't happen and oh God I think I'm starting to cry again.....

There is like no date mentioned at all, and Leigh Bardugo reportedly said it was years down the line :(
