"What I'm Reading" Wednesday #117

This "WIR"-Wednesday I'm reading the second book in a duology I finally gave a chance last month...

Crooked Kingdom (Six of Crows Duology #2) by Leigh Bardugo
Blurb:
When you can't beat the odds, change the game.

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.

Why I Chose This Book | What I Think So Far:
I was pleasantly surprised with how much I loved Six of Crows and the day I finished it and returned it to the library I ordered Crooked Kingdom signed from Books of Wonder and I'm just getting around to reading it now. I'm enjoying it so far, and I'm loving Jesper's father's arrival in Ketterdam. I wonder what's going to happen there and I'm eager to see whether the crew will be able to rescue Inej, collect their money, and have a happy ending... though from the non-spoilery things I've heard from other people, the happy ending might end in let down. Either way, I can't wait to see...
