Spoilers Ahead 
 I enjoyed this one much more than book 1. I think I came to terms with what happened in the previous book and I put my feelings aside. I taught the world building was so much better along with the writing and plot. This book was loads of fun along with the witty humour of a certain character ;) Could not put it down. The description of the Fold, the creatures (whats it called) 
 Alina 
 She was much better in this book. To me she felt like a female Darkling, his mate if I may. Its a first person narration so we get to read about everything she is thinking about, including her dark taughts. It starts off with her and Mal (stifles yawn) on the run. She gets much more powerful as the novel progresses and is ok although at times I get annoyed with her and wonder why it was not written from multiple perspectives. 
 The Darkling 
 Well well well. He pops up here and there. Whenever he does make an appearance you feel the atmosphere change. He is such a well fleshed out character and decieves so easily. He reminds me od Damon Salvatore when he has turned off his emotions. Once again I enjoyed his character so much, 
 Nicolai 
 Wow. A priveteer and a Prince. A new character yet he made the book a hundred times more interesting. So many funny lines I dont even want to get into it. I laughed so much. Hoping to see more of him. And his identity!!!! BTW I SHIP HIM WITH ALINA!!!!! DONT LEAVE ME DISSAPPOINTED. 
 Mal 
 I feel sleepy even writing about him. He is not a bad guy but he is such a flat character. Hmmm. Why does he even bother? Alina is definitely not the person whom he fell for. 
 I keep comparing the characters to those of The Rose Society by Marie Lu. 
 Aelina- Alina Evil and dark with powers 
 Teren- The Darkling 
 Red Head guy Prince????- Mal 
 Magiano- Nicolai 
 Will be reading book 3 soon. I love the world. But I love Six of Crows so much more.
