this is literally THE book. if you liked the Shadow and Bone series, go read it. Go read it right now. Close this app and go read it. I mean it. she's a work of art, she's perfect, she's the moment. I wouldn't change a thing about this book.

another Leigh slay (that rhymes for a reason).

this book was so cool.

found family is probably my favourite trope, and the execution in this one was *chefs kiss*

I loved all the characters so it is a little bit hard to choose favourites but I think my favourite is Nina 🤭 she's just so cool.
I also adore the enemies to lovers part of Nina and Mathias... absolute perfection. (he was added to my book boyfriends ofc)

all the characters are freaking amazing and they are my babies fr.

the first like 50 pages are a little bit slower than the rest of the book and it's definitely a bit confusing (although it helps if you read shadow and bone before this). but it definitely picks up after that. and it's written in third person even with a bunch of different povs but I did get used to it. but I do think it would be better in first person with this amount of povs (I hope this makes sense). but again, I got used to it and the plot became too good for me to even care about it.

I'm just absolutely obsessed with this and I can't wait to read the sequel.

4.75

Oh my god I finally read this book and I love that so much I gave it 4.75 stars because of the very confusing world building. After a while, I started figuring out how everything works or at least that it doesn’t matter that much and I don’t have to remember every single name, but in the beginning was quite something. 
I am in love with every main character, especially Inej and well every crow and I love the little romance going on. If you know you know, I never like Matthias, though, I never did. Nina can do so much better!!
I love the ice court heist!! It was so interesting and funny, but I have no idea how to imagine that and that’s why started watching the show Shadow and bone. But I’m honestly so disappointed because first of all I didn’t like the shadow and bone triology, and the show is mainly about that, and I only love the the crows. Also, the show was not like any of the books and that make me really mad. I just wanna watch the heist not some other random mission. Anyways I need to read a different genre now, but I’ll come back for Crooked kingdom!
