I don’t understand the love for this series, or anything by Leigh Bardugo for that matter. Six of Crows definitely had a lot of potential, but I found it to be lack luster. I didn’t need, nor did I want  300 pages of character introduction and backstory. Look, If you’re boring, just say so.

I loved this book. It was so engaging with a new plot twist every few pages. The plot was well thought out and it was excellently written. My favourite character was definitely Jesper because of all the funny comments he made. Plus I totally ship him with Wylan!!! Overall, I loved this book!
