surprisingly not overhyped, Six of Crows is an incredibly tense, funny, emotional, and well-written story about found family committing an insanely impossible heist.

the relationships between all of the characters felt so real and while i wish the cast was aged up (in their twenties instead of their teens) i throughly the way they spoke to each other. all of their relationships felt real (even with the contention) and the successes and happy moments felt incredibly well-deserved. 

i can’t wait until i can get my hands on the sequel.
