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 ;)

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.

Me urge un Kaz y un matthias, a quien engaño este libro fue un enorme bisexual panic para mi, me gustaron todos jajajaja, cada escena entre Kaz-Inej, Matthias-Nina, me traía loca, es que la quimicaaaa, una genio Leigh

Because our crime is existing. Our crime is what we are.

Mi personaje favorita es Niña y por mucho, es que es iconica, cada frase que decía yo pensaba hay que ónerle un altar y rezarle a semejante diosa

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.

LOVE LOVE LOVE this book for the characters alone 🥺🥺
But characters aside, I love a good heist and Leigh Bardugo was so creative in her creation of this plot and how the characters would support that. I cannot and will not ever get over what a masterful work of art this book is. Seriously, if there’s any doubts— read it. You’re guaranteed to love it. I’m a sucker for the characters and their charm and nuanced personalities, but I think Leigh doesn’t get enough credit for the insane world she’s developed. I know, I know— it’s part of the Grishaverse. I read Shadow and Bone, and the detail and intricacies of Ketterdam and Fjerda cannot be compared to the ones in S&B’s Ravka, sorry. I love love loveeeeee the detail Leigh gave us readers in the world and I think that complemented the characters so well, aiding in forming their backgrounds and true identities. This book will always have a place in my heart.

Very different to the Shadow and Bone trilogy, but I loved it none the less. I loved how mismatch the ‘crew’ was, and I liked how each of their backstories were littered throughout, rather than getting them all at once.

Though I really want to know more about Wylan, I was disappointed that there were no chapters from his point of view but I loved seeing him from other people’s perspective.

I loved Kaz and Inej, and Matthias and Nina’s real action ships, as well as how different they were. I also really loved Wylan and Jesper’s dynamic, looking forward to seeing more of them.

One thing i really didn’t see coming was that it was Jesper who gave away their plans, and it really wasn’t his fault, he didn’t mean to, but I know Kaz is gonna blame him, and I feel really bad for him, cause it is OBVIOUS that Jesper at least had a crush on Kaz, he literally said how he knew he was nervous when they first got to the Ice Court because he had the opportunity to see Kaz naked but didn’t take it. I just feel so bad for my boy Jes. I felt so bad when he realised he was ALWAYS the only one not knowing the plan/not knowing that Wylan had been tailored to look like the scientist.

I know this is meant to be a darker series than S&B but JESUS. The amount of trauma these teenaged, these CHILDREN, have is absolutely astonishing.

One thing I will say, it got very confusing between them getting a new plan and getting to the Grisha in the Treasury, I just felt it was very hard to visualise it, and the ending came very quickly after, I would really have liked to see how they all reacted when they escaped and how they felt about Nina’s taking of the drug and then getting back to Ketterdam.

Usually, I don’t like cliffhangers, but I felt this one with Inej having been taken by Van Eck just creates high stakes for the next book, which I’m looking forward to. It also opens the opportunity for Kaz to refer to Inej as ‘my girl’. I love them.
