Six of Crows by Leigh Bardugo
Rating: 4.5/5
Spice: 0
Six of Crows is a completed YA duology that follows Kaz Brekker and his crew as they attempt a deadly heist that has the potential to make them rich beyond measure. The story follows six young outcasts as they try to prison-break a scientist from the Ice Court, the maximum-security prison of the hostile country of Fjerda.
Six of Crows is a YA perfect for lovers of heists and magic. There is trauma, revenge, betrayal, love and backstabbing.
*Six of Crows is an interconnected series set in the Grishaverse. Six of Crows can be read separately from the series. For those that want the full world, the best order (in my opinion) is the Shadow and Bone trilogy, Six of Crows duology, then King of Scars duology. *
