3.5

I have some thoughts, and here they are.

1. The "foreshadowing" of who has the third omerta is nonexistent. It's easy to guess because there are only a few options, but that's not the same.
2. Jac was the reason I stuck with this book, his arc was great and his plotline was by far my favorite!
3. Enne as a street lord is interesting, but 
her gang's stock market doesn't make a ton of sense. Having a bunch of counters is pretty cool though, definitely breaks the stereotype of who is in a gang. The Spirits is a terrible name, but it also felt like a throwaway almost.

4. Tock is super cool and I hope she gets more fleshed out in the next book.
