     Dang this series is so good. I actually feel like I lost a friend.... or six. After I finished this book, I laid in bed for a good hour staring at the ceiling, feeling empty. I am so sad that it's over.

      This authors mind is one that I will truthfully never understand. The way she was about to come up with all this and make me feel so strong for all the characters is amazing. If I remember correctly, I said in my last review that, I didn't dislike any of the six. Every time I read a book with duel-POV there is always one or two characters I dislike, not in this book.

     One of the huge things that really got me is that we never got a final warp up chapter for Nina. Nina was my second favorite character (after Kaz). I really felt empty not knowing how everything ended for he after that six-month time skip. Maybe it's just me liking Nina too much, but I feel like we need it. 

    I also thought the middle got a little boring at times. Not matter what, I love the six and I could read 10 books about them and never get tired of them. 

    The gangs. The thrill. The pace. The hint of romance. The six. Chief's kiss I am in love and these books will always have a special place in my heart.

     I actually thought I was going to cry when I finished this book, just because it's over. I know I seem really dramatic but it's true. Thats how amazing these books are. I could write about this series for days but I won't just know this is your sign to read these books.

πŸ‡³πŸ‡±: Jeetje wat een boek.  Ik heb me geen moment verveelt! Het is een dik boek, maar het is het zeker waard. Het boek heeft een mooi afwisseling van spanning en gebeurtenissen. Ook krijg je een heel goed beeld van de karakters en de redenen van hun gedrag. Er zit emotionele boodschap achter elk character die mij persoonlijk echt aansprak. Er was niet echt Spice maar de romantiek tussen de personen is gwn echt perfect. De afwisseling tussen verschillende perspectieve is ook heel fijn

πŸ‡¬πŸ‡§: jeez what a book. I haven't been bored at all! It is a big book but I had a hard time putting it down. You also get a good look into the history of the characters and you get why they behave the way they behave. Every character  has a emotional story behind them and that got to me! There is not really spice but the romance in this book is chef kisses! It is a slow burn romance but not annoying. I would totally recommend it. I love the different perspectives, that really made a difference

It is an amazing sequel to Crooked Kingdom!!!! I loved it so much! Te whole book you will just be in awe of how smart Kaz is xD. Also I love the small references to The Shadow and Bone Trilogy here and there. All the characters are so amazing and the plot is just mind boggling!!!! (I don’t know how else to describe it) I had to cry multiple times because of how sad or beautiful the book was. Just like Six of Crows, a must read!!!!
