I’ve recently become obsessed. Like so obsessed with Baruch. She is a goddess.

I started with Six of Crows and I’ll soon be getting the Shadow and Bone series to complete my collection.

Since I’ve competed both Six of Crows and Crooked Kingdom, I thought I’d give a short review of both.

Six of Crows

My first trip into the Grishaverse and I was sucked right in! I felt instantly immersed in the universe that Bardugo created. She did a wonderful job going back and forth between the current time and giving backstory of the characters. You can’t help but be attached.

I read Gilded Wolves before this book and I thought at first that it gave off that same vibe. Which I LOVE Gilded Wolves as well, but I was worried that I would constantly be comparing SoC to it. But I only did once. The plot may have felt the same, it the meat and the potatoes were so different, and so filling!

The first chance you get, read this book!

Crooked Kingdom

This book is going to make me reevaluate how I give ratings. If I could give it higher than five stars, I would. Bardugo’s books are just amazing. Just like Six of Crows, Crooked Kingdom had all of the twists I expected, but there was more heartache. With the way she writes, you connect so much to the characters and when something happens to them, you feel it happen.

I absolutely didn’t want this story to end, but the ending took it right where it needed to be. Crooked Kingdom is an absolutely amazing story.
