I thought Six of Crows was fantastic (4.5 stars), but Crooked Kingdom was even better than I expected. I loved it so much!
The characters were just so fun to read about. Wylan’s POV and his more important involvement in this book was probably one of the best decisions Leigh Bardugo could have made, I’m so happy we got to see even more of him in this, such a lovable character.
And oh my gosh, the ending. It was very impactful and well written, but my heart is broken.
If what Leigh Bardugo said about the making of a third book for the Six of Crows duology some time in the future is true, then I will for sure read as soon as it comes out.
