It's so good!!!!!!!!! don't get me started I'll be here all day!!!!!!!!
It's basically a sequel series to the author's first one, The Grisha Trilogy, but you could read Six of Crows without reading the first one and pick things up easy enough, there are only a few characters in them that you'd actually meet in Grisha. It's mainly terminology and certain dynamics you'd struggle with. (The author's world building skills are insane, absolutely brilliant. She dodges all the cliches and has such a diverse, realistic world.)
Basically the plot is a group of six criminals set out to break into and out of the more secure prison in the world. The characters are Kaz, the leader (tr ash boii with no heart but also super tragic), Inej, the Wraith (a brown skinned, butt kicking girl who was sold into a brothel at a very young age and is a total badass, still kind and pious after the world is so cruel), Nina, the Heartrender (BABE BEAUTIFUL SASSY SENSUAL BABE WITH BLOOD POWERS, diverse body representation!!! Nina is a big girl but known as a beauty!!!), Jesper (my son, a wise cracking black guy with fantastic aim who gambles too much), Matthias, the convict (HE COMES SO FAR he's just a big tired guy who wants to go home. head over heels for Nina) and Wylan, the run away (tiny boy. protect. not a really a criminal. so much character development. likes the flute.)
if you like stories about lovable rogues finding a family in each other this is the series for you my friend. It has canonically disabled characters, like Kaz, who are very well written (the author is physically disabled herself), and get in on all the action, LGBT+ characters (two bi, one gay for sure tho a lot of it is up to speculation), body and racial diversity as far as you can see. The books are funny and heart pounding and deal with everything from revenge, to human trafficking, to overcoming taught prejudices, to turning your weaknesses into strengths and making lots of money they are also tragic like rip me i did not sign up for these tears
both the books are on Kindle!!! ahhhhhh im in love with this world do not get me started
