Duology Six of Crows by Leigh Bardugo

It's finally time to tell you about this duology.

But the truth is that I have no words to describe it.

I don't remember exactly the month I read both books, but I know it was around May of this year that Leigh Bardugo completely destroyed me.

Correction: she didn't destroy me, she did what no other author has done to me so far. She's managed to make me cry in every book of hers I've read so far. She made me want the characters to be real. God! She made me believe they were real! And to this day I still can't get over what I felt reading this duology.

Once again, words fail me. But maybe they are not necessary! After all, the value of such a work can only be realized if it's read - better, if it's lived.

This duology made me change my own ranking system. I can't give it just 5⭐. It's not fair to compare it to other novels I've read and loved. It's not enough to give it only 5⭐. So I give it a 🏆. But it still isn't fair. It's not fair to just give a trophy to a novel that clearly deserves an entire 🌌.

So I say: this is a reading we should all do.

Because with each word we get more and more into the story, more and more we wish that those characters are not just the fruit of the imagination of a brilliant author, more and more we want to read and continue reading and when the story ends, we just want it to continue or, at least, start over, so that we can read it again as if it was the first time, even if it's never possible again.

So the only thing I can say about this duology is:

Read it. You won't regret it!
