Review: Crooked Kingdom

Crooked Kingdom by Leigh Bardugo
My rating: 3 of 5 stars

I feel as though there could have been more to this book. It felt like a very short period of time for so much to go down and a lot less of an adventure compared to SoC. I was hoping for something more generally plot wise, not just Kaz's grand scheme going on for 18 hours worth of audio book. (( Speaking of which, if you haven't heard Wylan's voice actor doing the voice for Kaz, you need to go do that right now. ))

It took me FOREVER to get into this book. When I picked up SoC I was immediately drawn in, I was expecting that even more in this book knowing how much I adored the characters from the first novel. However, I found myself taking a ridiculously long time to get invested into the storyline for this one. I kept pushing onwards because I know I can't really hate a Leigh Bardugo book because she has never ceased to amaze as far as story-telling ability and corkscrew plot twists in the past. On the whole, I'm glad I kept reading. I just likely won't re-read it.
