I have been hearing about Six of Crows everywhere. Everyone was gushing about it, and I was a bit worried about reading such a hyped book. Especially when I was a few chapters in and did not love it. I almost DNFed this book, thankfully I stuck through to the end.

One thing I learned - I should not have started with Six of Crows. While this book is technically the first book in a duology, it is not the first book in the world. You can tell. The book got off to a slow start. I was extremely confused, nothing made sense. I felt lost and alone in both the book and the book community. I mean how could I not love this book?

About half way through the book started getting good. I understood the characters and had a better grasp of what was going on. About 2/3 of the way through the book it became really good. I finished the book grasped in a way I did not expect.

The second thing I learned - sometimes it is just good to stick with a book. I will not say Six of Crows is a favorite. It is a good book that leads to a much better book. If you are wondering if you should stick with this book then my advice is do. It goes from slow and eh to pretty awesome.
