Made me laugh, scream, cry and turn pages faster than I ever had. I physically NEED to reread this duology to be able to live in this book for a few days once again.

I would’ve liked the book better if it wasn’t spoiled for me, but it was still great! I think I prefer Six of Crows. It was still very good though!! I love all the characters and their dynamics together are amazing. It’s easier to understand the worldbuilding after reading the first book. It’s well written and immersive till the end. Love this series! Found family trope goes hard.
