After the amazing first book of the duology, (and a very frustrating cliff-hanger 😂) Crooked Kingdom is an awesome closure to the series.
The plot is full of twists and turn that make your gut twist, and the characters develop in their understanding and beliefs about themselves and the world around them.
If you enjoyed Six of Crows you MUST 100% read Crooked Kingdom (in my opinion even slightly better than the first book!)
