Rating: 4.5/5 stars
Selina Kyle returns to Gotham City after two years in a shadowy training academy, and begins a life as leader of a heist ring with Poison Ivy and Harley Quinn.
I’m not really a superhero/comic book girlie, but I know a decent amount about the Batman/Gotham City universe, and I love Sarah J. Maas as an author, so I wanted to give this one a try. I’m actually really glad I did, because the ending was (as per usual with SJM) absolutely phenomenal, and the entire book kept me engaged and interested. If you’ve read Throne of Glass, Selina Kyle felt a lot like Celaena if she moved to Gotham City, and I am here for those crossover vibes.
Overall, if you love SJM, read this, and if you love Catwoman/D.C. Comics, read this!
CW: terminal illness; violence/blood/injury/death; mentions of addiction and mental illness; mentions of racism and police brutality
