Please do yourself a favour and go read this series. It deserves all the hype it's getting. I cannot wait to go dive back into the Grishaverse with "Six of Crows" next.

Moving on from the love square, Alina as a character is just not good. The other characters go through character growth, but Alina does not; she actually goes backwards. I don't mind characters who go backwards, as long as they realise their mistakes and grow from it. Yet no, not for Alina. She is recklessly ambitious, self-absorbed and petty. Focussing a bit on her relationship with her friend Mal, he has sacrificed so much to be with her, and has even regressed a bit in book 2 but recovered in this one (character progression, yay!). Alina on the other hand, acts like her life is the most troubled life of all time.
I know it sounds like I am being negative, but these flaws hindered my perception on this novel and even the previous one; I think it had the potential to be a 4-5 star book. However, I love the world and will consider reading Six of Crows :)
