Absolutely fantastic. I wish I had the option to give a higher rating. I read this book a few years ago and still whenever someone asks me for a book recommendation this is the top of my list.

Six of Crows is a standout in any circle. An excellent heist story with some of the most interesting and loveable characters I’ve read about, all in a vibrant setting that feels like it could exist somewhere just beyond our knowledge. The lines are iconic and there are so many special details that make a reread just as good. I will always give this story 5 stars.

CAWPILE (weighted). I liked some of the characters (mainly Inej and Nina). I wanted to like Jesper but he wasn't really given much to do. I enjoyed some of the plot points; although everyone having a tragic backstory was a bit tiresome at times, they weren't drawn out so it was easy to overlook. I didn't like that all of the characters were so young, though I understand why, the plot and atmosphere would have benefited if they were a bit older. 

I loved the tank, though I felt that should have had more explosive consequences.

  Overall I enjoyed this book, and I will probably read the sequel, though I won't put it on my immediately read list.
