(Grade: C+) This book has a lot of aspects that should be right in my wheelhouse and it just didn't work. I didn't care for the narrative style or pacing, I didn't empathize with the characters despite their seemingly captivating back stories, and I didn't buy their relationships. Even the fantasy world and magic system didn't suck me in, and I was disappointed by the ending which was less of a cliffhanger and more just lacking in resolution.

Darthpoulsen (Grade: A) So there are 6 main characters, and usually when there is a large cast of characters, a couple of them turn out to be the 'boring ones'. Not so with this story. Every character plays a vital role, and all of them have deep, intriguing back stories that are masterfully unfolded one piece at a time. Can't wait for the next one.

bookappeal (Grade: A) Having not read any of Bardugo's other books, figuring out the Grishaverse and its categories of inhabitants took a little time but was well worth the effort. The characters are distinct and memorable, the plot is extremely detailed and unpredictable, and the story feels much larger than one book. The motley crew of six are all young and vulnerable in different ways but also fighters. They've been beaten down in one way (or many) but have survived. They value each other for their abilities
