Even better than the first book! I absolutely loved this book and I’m really hoping there’s a third one. I feel like it ended on a really good note but I’m gonna miss not reading about the crows if there isn’t another book. I love how this book dived more into the characters thoughts and their relationships with eachother, it made me feel even closer to them and felt like I was watching these events right in front of me.

I definitely enjoyed this book the most of the Grishaverse. But also reading 5 of these books back-to-back has left me in no desire to read the other two. I've been stuck in this world for what seems like forever and I really wanna read something else now lol
