“No Mourners. No Funerals”
I will say it a million times. This book slayed me! Especially since the first try I had reading this book turned out to be really bad. But I started to start back up again and read it for the booktubeathon. Totally worth my second chances.
Six of Crows by Leigh Bardugo
I gave this book a 5/5 stars on goodreads.
It almost seems very unlikely if one has not heard or seen this book.I would dare to say that it is very popular, and it is very popular for many reason I would assume are similar to mine.First of all the writing is beautiful, and so is this book. And let’s be honest this book was an impulse buy for my eyes. And if you don’t want to read it and you are only interested in buying it to make your book shelf look fantastic, I say you do it because it’s just so aesthetic. I will probably never get over that fact.
anyways onto a summary (NON-spoiler)
If you are interested some in this book, you will be on an amazing adventure with all of the book’s interesting characters. In this book you will read of many peoples POV’s of a gang-like group that lives in Ketterdam. They are the Six of Crows because of the six of them in this pack. This group goes on a heist for money, but for a crew they are so young, yet so dangerous, and well-planned out. Surprises and events take a turn and they will have to adjust. The characters are phenomenal in this book as well, which made switching point of views constantly enjoyable and entertaining. If you are interested in reading this book I say try it out. It was an enjoyable, intense, heart-wrenching. So what are you waiting for? Go live and read!!
***SPOILERS***
First, I would like to say that I am super glad that the next book is coming out in about two months. It is way better than waiting a whole year! Second, The Kaz and Inej feels are so strong.
One thing I enjoyed very very much about this book is Kaz and his background and how he handeled business. He is such a sexy badass character it shocks me. Also taking in the account that he is so ruthless it scares me. If you remember one of the opening scenes when he is…(well to be honest I forgot what they were doing)…making a deal or getting info with this other guy and he bluffs that he is basically going to burn down the apartment where his lover was at. I was like Kaz that is harsh, but then again ones got to do what they got to do to stay alive.
Skipping onto Matthias and Nina’s relationship. Wow they definitely at first do not make a dynamic duo. But I like how even though Matthias was raised to think that Grisha’s were the enemy he made his own decision in the end. It just really touched me that he choose her because he knew it was right and he didn’t want to be blinded by fallacies about Grisha.
Oh my goodness and there is this really cute scene on page 239-241. ( I mainly put this here because I made no tabs in my book and I think I will always want to read this part to get some giddiness into me). By the way if you are clueless about these pages, its basically just a part where Nina teases/flirts with Matthias and they finally have a kind of closer trust from that point on.
Lastly I shall tell of events that made me super nervous for some of my character.
- When Kaz fainted right at the beginning of the whole Heist.
- When Inej was climbing the incinerator–oh and when she was stabbed and almost died!
- When Kaz left Nina searching for Bo Yul-Bayer.
- Or the time Nina was trapped in that laboratory and Matthias was there and we all thought she was going to be dosed with jury parem!! (but thank goodness she wasn’t…yet!!!) she ended up taking it to save everyone. I think my heart broke at that point.
- And my heart just shattered when Inez was taken hostage. Just so many things happened in a short amount of time its hard to stir in my mind.
Okay enough ranting. Leave a comment telling me if you read this book? if you enjoyed it? and what where some of you favorite parts??
Love,
