Ahh Crooked Kingdom was everything I remembered and more! Like with Six of Crows this was only the second time I read this book and a lot of the little details I didn’t remember. I forgot how intricate Kaz’s many plans were and how they all came together in the end. There were stretches of the book that I found to be a bit slower paced and quite boring but they were overshadowed by how entertaining the rest of the plot was. I liked the fact that everything didn’t go exactly to plan yet Kaz and the rest of the crew were able to come together reevaluate and still get the job done. We definitely get more of an insight into the whole crew and delved into their backstories a lot more which gave this duology a lot more depth. And the way it ended was just so satisfying and made me feel very content. It was also nice to have the little cameo from Genya, Zoya and Nikolai which definitely leads into the next duology in the Grishaverse which I am very excited to get to!

I just now finished my reread of Six of Crows and oh my goodness the nostalgia! This was only the second time I have ever read this book which was over 5 years ago now and I really enjoyed it. There was a lot of the little details that I forgot over the years so it was honestly just a joy to relive everything again. Having multiple perspectives gave the story more depth and kept me very much engaged throughout. I liked the fact that we have multiple character arcs and budding relationships going on as well. I definitely wasn’t as in love with this book as I was the first time, I didn’t have that drive behind me to finish it in one day but I think that’s to be expected from a reread. Still lived up to the hype and this is probably my favourite book in the Grishaverse so far!
