I was thinking, do you want to buddy read Crooked Kingdom as well? That way we can read the duology back to back? If not, no pressure!
Don't worry about the pace if you want to read other books~ Actually, I didn't even finish the first chapter yesterday ^^' BUT I did really enjoyed what I've read so far! I think Bardugo's writing style did a really big jump from Shadow and Bone to this one :O
Yes, yes, yes! I wanted to propose that too, but I forgot the name of the book haha We can decide the schedule when we are about to finish this one ^^
Mod
and that's so great to hear! I wasn't sure if it was going to be too much or not. if anything we can just keep commenting on this thread to make it easier on mina
Finished chapter 5~I still don't know what to think of the characters, but the heist they're going to do would be awesome. I really want to read more!
I'm not sure why, but I think that Kaz would die at the end of the duology? It seems like karma is going to crush him haha
Omg chapter 11 was CHAOS. I didn't expect the problems to come so soon, but I wanted action after 150+ pages too hahaBTW, in the reschedule I did... I forgot chapters 36-39. *facepalm* though I think we will read at our own pace for now?
Mod
I've been trying to avoid coming here until I was fairly caught up, but life happens and I still haven't read as much as I wanted to. I'm roughly at chapter 8, where they just broke Matthias out of prison. So far, Kaz has been my favorite. yes, he's totally ruthless but he had to survive somehow.
Mod
Well it happens to me too. It took 150 pages to get some action! I like to know the characters background and all, but it's still slow. At least it's well written hahaI'm not sure who my favorite character is by now, but Kaz isn't D:
Mod
I get a day off today though and I'm planning to read as much as I can! I think the action finally sparked some interest in me lol.
Don't worry! I've been reading so little lately, but I want to finish the book this week. How are you doing with it? You will have some calm chapters for now, until they reach the prison, but Kaz's past will unravel~Yes, Inej and Kaz relationship is nice, though neither would accept any feeling towards the other haha
Well! Finally the action strikes again! But it took 350+ pages and that's sloooow (I'm on chapter 30). I'm liking all the secrets and new turns with what the characters can do. I'm still waiting for Wylan's development, but we will see!
(view spoiler)
I wanted to also comment some of the character's past~
Inej: oh, when I've read that they kidnapped her I was scared. I mean, she was a little girl and suddenly her world was torn apart. It's so scary that things like this can happen in real life too D:
Nina and Matthias : I kind of like their past? I like how they feel towards each other. "I'm meant to hate you but I like you".
Kaz: oh well, his past was the most traumatic for now. I understand how he feels about touching anyone after what happened, and I can't imagine how a little boy could survive that kind of trauma.
Mod
anyway, the story is nearing to a close and I can't possibly see a way out for them. I'll keep coming back to the thread too! :) (also, thanks for reading this with me and having the patience to still talk about it!)
I've finished!! It was slow until arriving at the prison, but after that it was fast and smooth. Maybe it's because everyone says it's so good, but I didn't think it was that good (I put 4 starts,but it's more a 3.5 for me).
Yeah, Inej had a lot of development, I love her <3
Kaz is more a dark grey character or so. He does what he does for his own vengeance.
I think chapter 35 or 36 Nina and Matthias got better, but I can't remember why haha ^^'
No need to thank me! I was slow too, and I like to comment books to have some motivation for reading.
Final chapters spoiler
(view spoiler)
Do you still want to read the next book with me? I'm ALL in <3
Mod
When you prefer! I'm planning on reading two other books on February, but I can read the next one too. When you can, if you have things to do in real life~
Mod
For March is okay~ We can read it in more days since both of us were slow reading this~How are you doing with the book? Anything new you want to comment? 👀
Mod
That's true, but Inej did a looot of things, so I don't think she's a damsel in distress at all haha. She really tried, but she couldn't do anything unconscious... I like her being so badass, but also needing help from others from time to time, like she's not invencible.I suspected that Pekka was alive because Kaz didn't say anything about him at all. And you now, if there's no corpse, there's no dead hahaha
Yess I'm expecting a super big vengeance on the next book, For some reason, this kind of books are my favorites.
Mod
and sorry, I meant to say the ending *WASN'T terrible hahaha, typo my bad. Anyway, super excited for it as well!
Haha from your comments I thought that "terrible" wasn't a bad thing since you said it was okay at first! Do you want to read the next from the 1st to th 12th of March?
