I don't understand how people rate a book, let alone with a 3-star review, months before the release.
If this is somehow similar to Six of Crows, that's a green flag to me and it goes directly to my TBR. The second green flag is that this is from the same publisher as Fourthwing and it will be a beautiful copy.

A new, addicting romantasy world that I couldn't help but fall in love with. K.A. Linde's writing shines in this fast-paced, action-packed story about a young woman discovering she may be more than just a human in a monster's world -- and that magic really does exist. I absolutely loved living in this alternate New York where Linde painted such a vivid picture of a world ruled by monsters. From the mystery and thrills to the angst and steam, I was completely wrapped up. Anxiously awaiting book two and excited to have a new world to obsess over!

Alternate New York with monsters?? Say less.

This is coming from the same imprint that came out with Fourth Wing, friends, so I’m intrigued by that alone.

I had to go back to the Blood Type series to refresh my memory on who Graves is. Now I can’t wait for this to come out!
