Something that impressed me was how deftly it broached some pretty mature themes without getting depressing. Also the complexity of the characters, which is Bardugo's biggest improvement from her previous titles imo.

Safe to say, there was little I didn’t like about this book, and anything I did could be forgiven. They’re such likable characters and you want them to succeed. I did want more of certain perspectives than we got and the ending was a little dragged out, but this is absolutely the BEST of the Grishaverse. I’m so excited to read the next one.

Finalmente leí este libro y ufff de lo que me estaba perdiendo, es que no puedo con los increíbles personajes que creo Leigh, cada pov es buenísimo y uedes distinguir muy bien las personalidades de todos, y el como se desarrolla el robo y los plot twists UFFF
The things Men do when they think no one is looking. Shame holds more vale than con ever can.
Because our crime is existing. Our crime is what we are.
Al final es una increíble historia sobre familia encontrada, prejuicios y sobrellevar el trauma.
Que bueno que ya tengo el segundo, por que es justo lo que sigue lol.

I only have two critiques: I wish all the characters were just a few years older. To me, especially the romances would be more compelling but the characters would also be more developed. Also, I think that the beginning of the book was a bit muddled and seemed to have too much all at once for introducing a new setting/social scene. Even though I read Shadow and Bone, I was still confused and disoriented about introducing how everything works in Ketterdam, especially since the characters are already established there instead of learning along with the reader.
