I loved this story! I watched the Netflix show before starting and I’m glad I did - seeing all the differences was so interesting. 
Overall I’m obsessed with this world and the characters, especially Mal and Alina and their relationship. It’s not a perfect book but it’s very enjoyable and you should give it a chance if you plan on reading six of crows later for a good understanding of the world. 
Can’t wait to continue with this series and all the sequel books!!
