I love this book. Truly got me back into reading, though the Prašina trilogy certainly helped.
The crows are interesting, charming, and funny. I loved the prose - it was descriptive just enough that it never got in the way of the plot but gave me a great idea of how things looked. The backstories of the characters were captivating, the whole beautifully emotional. However,

it ends on a cliffhanger and thus without reading the sequel you'll have no closure and a certain part made me uncomfortable

. However the atmosphere, dialogue, action... it was amazing.

Taking off a half point because I am not sure this needed to be a YA book. I think she could have aged the characters up and gone a little deeper with them.
A fun found family fantasy heist book! I was surprised when each chapter was in a different characters perspective, but I ended up caring for each of them enough to enjoy that. It was a fun read, I look forward to the next one.
