Dinamic and fight sence actually feel as if you are there and the adrenaline is overcoming you, a tense sences of negotiation feel like your standing in the middle of it and anticipating an escalting while the clock is thicking.
The characters are so comlex and it feels almost as if they are real. Everyone has their own unique set of characteristics and non of them are defined just by one (even though the book blurb would suggest other wise). For example, all of the characters are around 16-17 y/o who are thrown into very serious situation and so they had to mature much faster, but trough clevery placed remarks or thoughts you still see that at the end of the day they are still kids.
The dynamic between characters is so realistic and relatable, not to mention how organic the romsnce feels.
An easy 5/5 stars book that I would recommend to any (epic?) fantasy lover or anyone who wants to get into it.

I found it a little bit pretentious at first, but I got over it in the first twenty pages (maybe it was just Kaz's introduction. And well. He is a pretentious motherfucker.)
Both the plot and characters stand out to me, the plot was gripping, fast faced but fluid. It's one of my fave tropes, too (delinquents and heists). While our characters do incredible things, it doesn't read as too much, or make you roll your eyes. The characters are charming and well rounded, the relationships between them feel natural and the dynamics suck you in.
