Why Did I Read? I loved the Grisha trilogy and loved Six of Crows and Leigh is one of my favorite authors! Of course I was going to read it! My Thoughts: A few things first: I absolutely love Leigh’s writing. She’s one of my favorite fantasy authors because her writing is amazing and draws me in. Her story telling is also amazing.
