The Gilded Wolves by Roshani Chokshi
4.25
adventurous emotional fast-paced
Plot or Character Driven: A mix
Strong character development: Complicated
Loveable characters: Yes
Diverse cast of characters: Yes
Flaws of characters a main focus: Yes

Found family! Heists! Cool magic system!

I loved the characters (well, specifically Enrique and Zofia, who both deserve the world). Laila is very overpowered, but I forgive her. I have mixed feelings about Séverin.

I really loved how anti-imperialist this book was, and I hope that continues in the sequels.

The stakes felt a little low at times, but then they were suddenly VERY high. I'm hoping that evens out a bit in the sequels.

Overall, I really enjoyed this book and would recommend it to anyone who likes heists, found family, or fantasy.
