Read as a filler/bad mood/book hangover book over the span of a a few weeks
Rating: 4.9/5

Summary:
With the promise of a huge reward, six teenagers with everything to gain agree to go on an impossible heist. A mastermind, a spy, a Grisha with the power to stop hearts and heal wounds, an ex-soldier, a sharpshooter, and a naive demolitions expert embark on a journey that takes them away from their home in Ketterdam, a 16th century Amsterdam-inspired criminal city, into an icy country that wants nothing more to kill the lot of them. They must use their combined talents and resourcefulness to retrieve their target despite the odds stacked against them.
Thoughts:
It's Six of Crows. It helped with my bad mood. It made me happy. Though it was hard to focus on it after finishing ATYD, it helped with my book hangover too. I love all of the characters, but this read I feel like it was Inej again who I related to—and loved—the most. I don't intend to read Crooked Kingdom immediately, since I have my An Ember in the Ashes reread planned next, and then maybe some Ranger's Apprentice/Brotherband Chronicles rereads on tap next in terms of comfort books, but I will definitely be finishing it at some point soon, and loving the heck out of it, of course.
