Hello everyone!!
Today we are reviewing Six of Crows by Leigh Bardugo which is the first book in the duology. It is a YA fantasy book published in 2015 by Henry Holt & Company.
I have said it for other books too, but I should have read Six of Crows earlier. I finished it this month and it is certainly a five - star read for me.
I loved the story of an impossible heist and I really liked the setting of it. Ketterdam sounds like a place I would like to see. It has excellent world-building and the story is dark, action packed and with magic and some romance. I also really liked the characters, they are so mixed up in their own way. I love how morally grey all of them are.
I was hooked from the beginning and it continued until the last page with many plot twists. I also liked the mention of characters from Shadow and Bone.
My favourite characters are Inej and Kaz and I really enjoyed their interactions. Inej has gone through a lot but she has come out strong. Kaz is a very complex character. he is manipulative, smart and an antihero. He also cares for his friends even if he doesn't admit it. I love The Dregs as a group. Their relationships and dynamics are everything.
Highly recommend it but I believe most of you have already read it.
Rating: 5 Stars
Synopsis from Goodreads:

A convict with a thirst for revenge
A sharpshooter who can’t walk away from a wager
A runaway with a privileged past
A spy known as the Wraith
A Heartrender using her magic to survive the slums
A thief with a gift for unlikely escapes
Kaz’s crew is the only thing that might stand between the world and destruction—if they don’t kill each other first.
