'a gambler, a convict, a wayward son, a lost grisha, a suli girl who had become a killer, a boy from the barrel who had become something worse.'

i've put this off for ages because i was afraid i'd hate it and i had high hopes but so glad to say it didn't disappoint whatsoever. fell in love with the crows and now idk what life is without them

i've been writing papers all week for uni so my brain? empty. hope you can feel my love for this book and these characters emitting through the screen

'without meaning to, he'd begun to lean on her, to look for her, to need her near.'

i love them both so much and they deserve the world.

Kaz leaned back. "What's the easiest way to steal a man's wallet?"
"Knife to the throat?" asked Inej.
"Gun to the back?" said Jesper.
"Poison in his cup?" suggested Nina.
"You're all horrible," said Matthias.
I do not think I can make a review enough to do this book justice.

First fifty or so pages in, I'm still struggling to get used to the universe and the language and the magic, but hey, it's really interested! I'm looking forward to seeing these characters more.

Hundreds pages in, I physically cannot put the book down. I am bringing it everywhere with me, reading one page every time there's a pause in the conversation, just going absolutely insane. WOW. JUST. WOW.

She was not a lynx or a spider or even the Wraith. She was Inej Ghafa, and her future was waiting above.

I am obsessed with these characters. With this plot. With this plan. With these schemes. With these relationships. I am obsessed down to the pages and the way the words are printed on them... It's just. WOW. At many moments, it wasn't even reading anymore, it was just absorbing.

“Stay,” she panted. Tears leaked from her eyes. “Stay till the end.”
“And after,” he said. “And always.”

I need to know instantly what happens next or I will explode. Thank you for your time. If I tried to explain who my favorite character is, I'd just do in depth analysis of every single character.

No mourners. No funerals.
