Omg it was intense.
I loved six of crows and I loved crooked kingdom too.
There was action, betrayal, many plot twists, love and death. Although the death was quite unsatisfying.
Love the characters and Leigh bardugos worldbuilding.
Only thing that I disliked were the chapter lengths. Most of them were 25 pages long and I personally think that 10 page chapters are the best since long chapters tend to demotivate me.
Overall there was so much happening and it felt so intense. Like I had every 30 pages a wtf or a omg moment.
Read the book asap. Although start with shadow and bone because I didn’t and got spoiled through six of crows and crooked kingdom a lot about the shadow and bone trilogy.
