A Six of Crows Appreciation Post and Review

Hello everyone,

I have some amazing news for you today. I have found an amazing book.

Back in September, some of my friends and I traveled to a book store for some fun.  We used to make jokes that we were a murder (group of crows) because of how obnoxious we were when we went places. I saw this book called Six of Crows, and my friend Sarah and I joked that I needed to buy it for our group.  The book was $20 so I said I would look online.

Months passed.  I would periodically check online and in stores.  The book dropped to $15, but me being me, I refuse to pay more than $10 for a book.

Finally Audible offered me a deal to buy any book for only $7.  I chose this one.  Quickly I realized that there were too many names and I was getting confused.  I was going to have to spend some real money on this book.

Summer came and I was dying to read it.  The summary and the few chapters I had listened to left me wanting more.  I had to go to a few book stores to find it, because at this point it was not a new book.

I went home and I started it right away.  I had it done in a few short days. I loved it so much.

Summary:

Taken from Goodreads
Ketterdam: a bustling hub of international trade where anything can be had for the right price—and no one knows that better than criminal prodigy Kaz Brekker. Kaz is offered a chance at a deadly heist that could make him rich beyond his wildest dreams. But he can't pull it off alone...

A convict with a thirst for revenge.

A sharpshooter who can't walk away from a wager.

A runaway with a privileged past.

A spy known as the Wraith.

A Heartrender using her magic to survive the slums. 

A thief with a gift for unlikely escapes. 

Kaz's crew are the only ones who might stand between the world and destruction—if they don't kill each other first.


Review:

5/5 Stars
The characters were so interesting, and I loved how we got to see from their different perspectives.  The ending left me wanting more, and I already have my eye on the next one that comes out this year in September.
I have not read a book this good in a long time.  After finishing the book it left me wanting to go on an adventure and longing to read more.  Days later I am still thinking (and dreaming) about this book.  If you read nothing else in your lifetime, spend the money, get this book. I already want to re-read it.

Happy Reading
