This book was kinda everything I was hoping that Shatter me was going to be. This was just what I have been looking for and I didn't even know it. I have been looking for a 5-star read since I read ACOWAR.

At the beginning I was having a hard time with all the different characters, but after about 20% I had it down. I did think that the beginning was a little slow, but it was the buildup we needed for such a good book. Sometimes books are just slow, but this book was slow at the beginning because it had to buildup. Once I got into the book like right after the 20% mark, I finished it all in one day. I couldn't put it down. I just had to know what was going to happen next.

Normally in books there is one charcter that I love. If you know me this will come to no surprise whatsoever, but Kaz was my favorite character. The thing with multiple POV's is that normallly I only like 1-2 characters and don't really care about the rest. This book however, I was interested in all the characters POV's and what was happening with then during this huge heist.

I have never read a book like this "in the villans POV" if you will. They aren't villains as much ans they are crimnals but still, I have never really read books in a POV like this. If I have read a book in a POV of a qeastionable character normally in the POV they aren't doing their qeastionalbe thing. If that makes sense, I have read books in like a POV of drug dealers, but they we never dealing drugs while I was reading their POV. So yeah, that was a little different for me but not in a bad way.

I would say when it comes to ships, I have the typical ships that is seems the author is trying to push. Although

I thought the LGBTQ couple was gunna be Nina and Inej. I was a little bummed that it wasn't because they would have made a cute couple and they had some good chemistry.

I do like all the relationships tho.

I am so ready to start the second book. I am jumping out of my skin just thinking about what could happen in the second book.

The Dutch (inspired) names and history were something to get used to - they deterred me because really, it felt a bit cringey. But I am glad I pushed on! Because Leigh Bardugo created a whirlwind of a story, in a wonderful world with characters that relate well to each other and all have their own twists, thoughts, and story. Great use of flashbacks and different POVs which kept the plot moving at great speed - although it was sometimes a bit too rushed and it is a bit uncertain how old the cast are supposed to be.

If I could rate this more than 5 stars, I would.

THIS. BOOK.

This book has been hyped by SO many people. Was I skeptical at first? Idrk. But ik now that that hype is 100% deserved. This book is so good and gets you hooked early. It is definitely a good 'investment' of your time.

see what I did there. lol

THIS BOOK HAS RIGHTFULLY CLAIMED ITS PLACE AS MY NEW FAVORITE BOOK OF ALL TIME. I KNEW IT FROM THE FIRST COUPLE CHAPTERS THAT THIS WOULD ABSOLUTELY MAKE ME FALL IN LOVE WITH IT.
First of all, the humor in this book was OUTSTANDING. I was audibly chuckling at all the clever lines that were just so hilarious and it made you love each and every one of the characters even more.
Also, the amount of times that I said to myself, “how is this writing so incredibly addicting and perfect?” while reading this was insane. Never have I read a book with such a perfect and smooth-flowing writing style.
Don’t even get me started on the amount of times I re-read lines that were hilariously flirtatious and made the other just speechless, especially Jesper’s. Every single character, except for some certain ones of course, we’re just so immensely love-able and made me want to be there with them and be a part of their crew.
This book easily became my top favorite book ever and I officially rate it ♾️/5🌟. I love Kaz Brekker, Inej Ghafa, Jesper Fahey, adorable Wylan, Nina, and Matthias so much that it hurts that I can never actually know them.😆
