The Grishaverse will be coming to Netflix soon with Shadow and Bone, an original series! Crooked Kingdom: the highly anticipated sequel to Leigh Bardugo's thrilling #1 New York Times-bestselling Six of Crows. Kaz Brekker and his crew have just pulled off a heist so daring even they didn't think they'd survive. But instead of divvying up a fat reward, they're right back to fighting for their lives. Double-crossed and badly weakened, the crew is low on resources, allies, and hope. As powerful forces from around the world descend on Ketterdam to root out the secrets of the dangerous drug known as jurda parem, old rivals and new enemies emerge to challenge Kaz's cunning and test the team's fragile loyalties. A war will be waged on the city's dark and twisting streets—a battle for revenge and redemption that will decide the fate of the Grisha world.

Six of Crow: Crooked Kingdom Collector's Edition

So many twists and gut wrenching revelations. Broke my heart so perfectly, I absolutely loved it!

My lord was this a long winded book. It took over a month to read. It dragged at times and I feel like 200 pages could’ve been cut. But the story was good. The character and plot arcs were nicely wrapped up in a satisfying way.

STILL SO AMAZING just not quite as good as the first and maybe Slightly less cohesive. but she8888

i flew threw this book in six hours. i am at a loss for words.

everything was perfect. the last chapter left me with such a longing for more of these beautiful characters. watching them grow and learn and love was so so special. i've never felt a connection like this to a set of characters in my life.

i'm so thankful i could feel like a part of this absolutely magical journey.

I didn’t think the second book could top the first book but it’s so good.

I think I could read about these characters endlessly and I like that their endings haven't been defined.

thought six of crows was amazing, but this one is even more phenomenal. i love every bit of how the story progressed and how fleshed out the characters are. to say that the characters are written well is an understatement. these characters are real. they are alive. 40 or so chapters divided into 6 povs but leigh bardugo managed to put so much depth into these characters and bring them to life. i felt so connected to them that i find it very difficult to let go of the world this duology created. the crows are surely going to stay with me for a long time.

"i would come for you. and if i couldn’t walk, i’d crawl to you, and no matter how broken we were, we’d fight our way out together — knives drawn, pistols blazing. because that’s what we do. we never stop fighting."

Well, fuck. What a conclusion! I don’t want to leave Ketterdam and this band of miscreants behind!!! I loved them all so much. What a way to go out, though. A fantastic plot (although it took maybe 30% of the way in to get really hooked), I loved the new characters in this book, and everything just wrapped up so well. Ugh. Sad to be done this series.

Anna 

the crooked kingdom was just as good as the six of crows, maybe even better. 
I just love all the heist and found family and beautiful tricks kaz is able to do. I love all of the characters and will definitely reread it again. 
this series became my comfort reads, to be quite honest <3

** spoiler alert **
           I refuse to believe Matthias is dead!!!!

sometimes you’re just a 26 year old adult woman and you wanna read about 17 year olds with various emotional problems/magic powers creating a found family while pulling off heist after heist and lucky for you the six of crows duology exists 🙏

I LOVED IT SO DAMN MUCH. I LOVED ALL THE MCS THAT I CAN'T PICK MY FAVE. IT WAS SUCH A ROLLER COASTER RIDE. AN ABSOLUTELY BRILLIANT, ENTHRALLING, AND BEAUTIFULLY WRITTEN. IT HAS EVERYTHING YOU COULD POSSIBLY WANT IN A BOOK AND I CANNOT RECOMMEND IT ENOUGH!

“I would have come for you. And if I couldn't walk, I'd crawl to you, and no matter how broken we were, we'd fight our way out together-knives drawn, pistols blazing. Because that's what we do. We never stop fighting.” 

Ok, this was a ride. Unpopular opinion though: I don't think this needs another installment in the series, I like the way Bardugo ended this duology.
I don't remember the last time I had so many tabs in a book, let me tell you that. I'll never shut up about the complexity of these characters and how much I loved each one of them. This is such a character-driven story that doesn't fail in telling an incredibly interesting and complex narrative. 
I feel so sad, but I also feel so proud (and happy to have read such an amazing piece of literature at the beginning of my reading year).

It leaves you wanting for more but in a great way. Of course, we want to know what is to happen to the characters we know and love. But maybe that's a tale solely for our imagination. Once you read the Six of Crows duology, you will leave the story wondering and that, by itself, proves how brilliant it is.

All in all, I'll carry these beautiful amazing characters with me. I'll catch myself wondering and hoping and longing for them.

This was a beautiful series. Just beautiful.

No mourners. No funerals.

this was somehow better than the first one and idk how that's even possible I loved this book sm it flew over my expectations

** spoiler alert **
           Changed my rating coz I hated that Matthias died it was so unnecessary 🫠
