I was initially going to give this a 2-star rating at most, but omg it got so good.
I fell in love.
The ending of this book makes up for all the little issues that I had throughout it.
It was like the whole story was coming to a crescendo!
I’m definitely re-reading it in the new year!

I was surprised how much I enjoyed this one. It's a gritty noir story about an eternal war of assassins and the people who get caught in the middle. Somehow it managed to merge brutal violence, off-beat whimsical humour and genuine emotion into a package that was more than the sum of its parts.
