Red Glove by Holly Black
5.0

Cassel and Kaz Brekker (from Leigh Bardugo’s Six of Crows) would definitely get along. If you thought White Cat wrapped things up nicely and Cassel would finally catch a break in his senior year...this is Holly Black. In Red Glove, Cassel frantically balances protecting his family, helping Lila with her curse, and investigating a mystery regarding the murder of his brother. Curse-working always comes at a price and Cassel must determine how much he is willing to give up. Red Glove was full of twists and heartbreaking moments (in a good way, I promise!). The tight pacing and insurmountable obstacles made this magical book difficult to put down. Tangent: the random background character Jace makes me laugh every time. I’m excited to read book three in the trilogy, Black Heart!
