Book of Night by Holly Black
4.0

Reminiscent of Ninth House and Peter Pan, this is a slow burn urban fantasy that will have you on the edge of your seat. I'm a sucker for any book with elements of thievery and magic, so this kind of grifter/con artist meets shadowy underworld vibe was perfect. The overall plot is fairly predictable, though I'm not sure what the ramifications of the ending will be for Book 2. What will even happen in Book 2?? Needless to say, I'm in.
