I really liked the plot of the book and did not expect the ending to be so questioning! Overall I really think this fits in with the Grishaverse.

The back of the book describes it as ‘Ocean’s Eleven set in a Game of Thrones-esque world’, and it is exactly that. 

So many twists and turns, so many clever plot points, endless times when you think it’s all going to come crashing down and then suddenly the plan has been there all along and it all clicks in to place. 

Can’t wait to read the second book.

I really really loved this book a bit more than the Shadow and Bone trilogy but I did find it annoying that its called Six of Crows and it was only Kaz, Inej, Jesper, Nina and Matthais who had chapters and not Wylan. Poor Wylan was just shoved to the side :(.

The beginning fight with the Black Tips didnt seem necessary to me and it felt like it was delving away from the story

otherwise i am a Helnik Kanej and Wylan truther.

Convoluted plot lines that even the reader doesn't understand until all is said and done. Never too predictable, and we love some good bisexual tension ;)

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!
