I'm liking this now that I've stuck with it, but I can't help feeling there's some holes in this regarding Wylan looking like Kuwei. I do love these characters and I'm nearing what I think might be the finale, I don't want it to end. Also want to know how long after the Shadow and Bone stories that this happens. (Will deffo try and read those, but I forgot that the tv show had bundled them together)

I made it further than last time! But I see why I gave up: that stupid improvised reason for Jesper being a Crow that everyone just jumped in on and Colm seemed to believe. It hasn't made me yeet the book across the room this time so let's carry on, shall we? :P

Trying this again, didn't realise I'd gotten that far last time... Oh well! Onwards!

Just read the attempt of Wylan (and the whole gang) to explain to Colm why Jesper's in trouble. Sorry but I can't imagine anybody being so gullible when 3 people who aren't your son tell his story by half substituting sentences. Kindly, p*ss off. I liked the first book, and I loved the single chapter of Inej's I've read so far, but this book is veering towards the abandoned list.

This feels a little scattered already...
