Teaser Tuesday is a weekly bookish meme hosted by MizB of Books and a Beat If you want to join in grab your current read, flick to a random page, select two sentences (without spoilers) and share them in a blog post or in the comments of Books and a Beat.
This week my teaser comes from Crooked Kingdom by Leigh Bardugo which is the second and final (noooo!!!) book in the Six of Crows duology. I read this almost two weeks ago but didn’t get a chance to post a teaser so thought I should fix that. Leigh Bardugo is a fantastic author and one of the few on my auto buy list. I’d recommend everything she’s ever written.
My Teaser
“I,” she said, planting a hand on her hip, “am a delicate flower.”
“You aren’t a flower, you’re every blossom in the wood blooming at once. You are a tidal wave. You’re a stampede. You are overwhelming.”
~ page 233, Crooked Kingdom by Leigh Bardugo
Blurb
Kaz Brekker and his crew have just pulled off a heist so daring even they didn’t think they’d survive. But instead of divvying up a fat reward, they’re right back to fighting for their lives. Double-crossed and left crippled by the kidnapping of a valuable team member, the crew is low on resources, allies, and hope. As powerful forces from around the world descend on Ketterdam to root out the secrets of the dangerous drug known as jurda parem, old rivals and new enemies emerge to challenge Kaz’s cunning and test the team’s fragile loyalties. A war will be waged on the city’s dark and twisting streets―a battle for revenge and redemption that will decide the fate of magic in the Grisha world.
Happy reading everyone.

I had no idea either until about 2 days after I finished when I went hunting for the next one. I think there will be a new trilogy or duology at some point thank goodness.

I saw something mentioned about a new series the other day; Ninth House? It sounds like it’s not going to be fantasy though, but if it’s Leigh Bardugo I’m going to read it no matter what. 😉

I think it’s kind of fantasy as it’s supposed to have something about the occult. I’d also read it regardless
