Book: Six of CrowsAuthor: Leigh BardugoPages: 462Rating: ★★★★★Synopsis: Ketterdam: a bustling hub of international trade where anything can be had for the right price–and no one knows that better than criminal prodigy Kaz Brekker. Kaz is offered a chance at a deadly heist that could make him rich beyond his wildest dreams. But he can’t pull it off alone… 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.Six dangerous outcasts. One impossible heist. Kaz’s crew is the only thing that might stand between the world and destruction—if they don’t kill each other first. -from GoodreadsMy Review Leigh Bardugo has changed my life! After finishing the first novel in her second series it quickly became one of my favorite books ever. In all honesty I would say the characters really made the story for me. She artfully crafts characters that are all unique and diverse racially, sexually, and religiously, but writes them in a way that they all come together in a heartwarming tale of friendship and comradery. The characterization is so unique for all six outcasts so that no matter what I guarantee you’ll like at least one of them (but you’d have to be heartless to not fall in love with all of them). The most important part is that none of them are perfect. They all have flaws or troubles in their past that make them seem human and that’s why you love them and want them to succeed so badly.It will rip your heart out but it’s also one of the most hopeful masterpieces that I’ve ever read. If I had to sum in up with a few words: mind blowing, emotional, romantic, exhilarating, empowering, beautiful, hilarious, fun!I would highly recommend this book and its sequel, Crooked Kingdom, to anyone because it really has something for everyone. If you’ve already read Leigh’s original Grisha trilogy, since its a connected universe there are some fun references and cameos, but you absolutely can read the six of crows duology without any prior grishaverse knowledge.to find out what i thought about Leigh’s world building, setting, plot, more details on the characters, and more overall opinions:READ MY FULL REVIEW HERE -- source link
