izzysreading's review against another edition

I usually don't HATE characters and I don't think in this case the author intended that. But Nina... wow... I constantly rolled my eyes when she talked or thought. I just couldn't stand her. She always wanted that everyone did what she wanted and threw shade at everyone when she thought about them. Like why?

SPOILERS: She told the others or at least thought it, that Matthias hates her and kills Grishas, but she's still in love with him??? Plus, if I know that a person wants me dead, I won't go near them, so the end of her chapter was well deserved. She should've known better.

OMG Six of Crows is incredible! I don't know why it took me so long to read it, but I'm glad I finally did. The character dynamics are so messy and fun; the heist keeps you on the edge of your seat; the worldbuilding is thorough (and you can see the cultural differences through the eyes of various characters). I can't wait to read the sequel!

I love Jesper so much he is like a blorbo to me.
