A review by thecourtofreading
Hell Bent by Leigh Bardugo

dark mysterious tense medium-paced
  • Plot- or character-driven? A mix
  • Strong character development? Yes
  • Loveable characters? Yes
  • Diverse cast of characters? It's complicated
  • Flaws of characters a main focus? Yes

4.5

i definitely think i prefer the first book more, but i did have a blast reading this. Leigh Bardugo is just so clever at creating a perfect atmosphere and setting with her books, and i really think she suits the gritty, dark adult genre more than she suits the ya genre (although i love six of crows so much). i'm very excited to see what else Alex and Darlington and Dawes have to deal with, and will definitely be picking up the final instalment. 

i also went to a book event to celebrate the launch of hell bent and got to meet Leigh! had a blast with my friends and got six of crows signed <3
