I wrote this and I'm super proud. The title will change, but the awesomeness won't. All hail the Crooked crew!
Can we all appreciate this edition 😍🥺 I might read this book just because of this cover!!!
There aren't enough stars in the WORLD to give to this book, oh my god. From the very first page, I adored INTO THE CROOKED PLACE, and CITY OF SPELLS was a long-awaited book that had me gripped from the first page as well.Alexandra Christo has created a rich, detailed, stunning world full of magic, charms, tricks, underdogs, and dark crime mingled with magic. Usually, I'm hit-and-miss with second books, especially when the first ends in a fight, and it's fantasy, but CITY OF SPELLS didn't have t...
Thank you so much to Allen & Unwin for providing me with a copy of City of Spells, in exchange for an honest review!Ahhh it was so good to be back in this world. After the cliffhanger ending of Into the Crooked Place, I desperately needed to know what happened to Wesley! Separated from the rest of the crew and held against his will by the Kingpin, Wesley is enduring torture of different kinds. The torture to his body he can endure, but knowing he can't convince his child captor, Zekia, to lea...
I know it took forever to find time to finish this, but I've loved these characters and world a lot! :)
Rating low merely due to the fact that i proably should of re read book one before jumping into book two but at any rate here are my thoughts. A satisfying ending to the duology that is magical and timeless. We pick up the story right where we left off into the crooked place. Our evil kingpin Ashwood has discovered some new mind-altering magic that corrupts the cities and controls everyone to remove their free will. They are magic zombies. We are driven by the characters who are compelling and w...

I definitely prefer the sequel to the first!This is a strong conclusion to the duology and satisfactory. It wasn't my favourite series or my favourite book by Alexandra Christo, but I did appreciate having the time to read it and experience this world and these characters. I felt like I had a better understanding of it in this book than the previous.
the into the crooked place / city of spells duology by alexandra christo is a gritty fantasy that follows four criminals—tavia, saxony, karam, and wesley—who are forced work together to save their home after a new form of dark, illegal magic is discovered and sparks a conflict within the city’s underground. the duology was a intriguing fast paced read with a unique setting and interesting magic system and the best romance subplots. although i didn’t connect with the beginning of the first book,
Big thanks to PrideBookTours and Hot Key Books for my gifted copy. 𝘊𝘪𝘵𝘺 𝘰𝘧 𝘚𝘱𝘦𝘭𝘭𝘴 is a follow up into 𝘐𝘯𝘵𝘰 𝘵𝘩𝘦 𝘊𝘳𝘰𝘰𝘬𝘦𝘥 𝘗𝘭𝘢𝘤𝘦. I really enjoyed the second part of this duology. The action picked up at the end of 𝘐𝘯𝘵𝘰 𝘵𝘩𝘦 𝘊𝘳𝘰𝘰𝘬𝘦𝘥 𝘗𝘭𝘢𝘤𝘦, and it remains intense for the whole this instalment. It felt like we got to know Wesley, Tavia, Saxony, Karam and Zavia more here, and they stories entangled even more. The stakes are even higher in 𝘊𝘪𝘵𝘺 𝘰𝘧 𝘚𝘱𝘦𝘭𝘭𝘴.The Kingpin’s dark magic is spreading, and the...
