loved this duology (although Sources say —see Leigh’s Twitter in 2018—that she has a third book in mind‼️)

But she also ripped my heart out (IYKYK) and idk if I can forgive her for that 😭

This book is an amazing sequel to Six of Crows and leaves me wanting more. The book is so well written and the unpredictable plot twists are never ending. The surprising intimacy these characters display with themselves, each other, and the reader will leave you swooning. This book made me cry, which is saying something as I rarely cry while reading.
I will definitely reread this series over and over again and would recommend this to anyone wanting to read more fantasy.
