hopskippity 's review for:

City of Thieves by David Benioff
4.0

Really not sure if I’ve ever read anything better.

NOW, I realize I am usually a victim of recency bias, but this was incredible. In the 4.5-4.8 range for me right now. Hesitant to give out that 5th star bc I’m lame and like to think the perfect book exists ( see: 14 year old me reading Looking For Alaska)

I’d put this up against anything I’ve read in the last two years and I’d put Kolya up there with any character.

Edit: it was all a lie; rip
