The Crows Fly

Lit Talks with Lauren is back with The Crows for episode two! I will be covering the last half of Six of Crows where things are heating up. How will they accomplish their task? Will it all come crashing down? Let’s find out and book club this next section with me!

In part two I will dive deeper into the world building and the parallels within the Grishaverse. Another one of my good friends and fellow bookies, Lyndi will be joining me this episode. Lyndi is a book enthusiast and loves to create theories and discuss characters just as much as me. 

I will explore the tragic pasts of the crows and how it has shaped them into the characters they are now. Will Inej leave the Crows or will she and Kaz finally admit their feelings? Can Nina and Matthias mend their past? Will Jesper and Wylan discover who they are? It’s all coming to a close. 

We will also talk about the TV show and the new character Wylan in the recently released season 2.  

The Crooked End…

You will be shocked by the ending of the first book. You will be dying for the next book and the finale to the duology. We will talk theories for what may happen in the next book, Crooked Kingdom, and how this story could all end. 

The gang is getting their way and it’s only a matter of time before someone comes along to shoot them down. Can they survive and gain their glory and revenge? Or will the wicked world that beat them once, beat them again? 

Read along with me and find out just what will make a Crow caw because Kaz and his gang are not done yet. So, prepare yourself for the next part because the Crows are flying toward a crooked end…

Six Of Crows Book Club

The back alleys of Ketterdam, or better known as The Barrel, is the playground for The Crows, a gang ready to risk it all for a grand heist. But can they keep it all together and come out big in the end? Can they work together to find glory and revenge? Find out with me as I book club the first three parts of Six of Crows by Leigh Bardugo and figure out if The Crows are up for the task. 

In episode 1 of Lit Talks with Lauren, a book club podcast, I will be following The Crows into the dark alleys of the barrel. You can read along with me while we dive into this power hungry world. I will discuss theories, plots, and world building with my good friend and fellow bookie Mandi.

Mandi has been reading and exploring books since she was young. She recently finished the Shadow and Bone trilogy in the Grishaverse world. She also watched the first season of the TV show released on Netflix by the same name.

All the Crow Details

Mandi and I will also discuss the parallels between the book and the TV adaptation (trailer). We may even explore some characters in other books within the Grishaverse!

We will learn about Kaz Brekkers tragic past and what led him to be called “Dirtyhands”. And the mysterious Inej Ghafa, better known as the Wraith, and her journey to freedom and redemption. 

Don’t forget Jesper, Nina, Wylan, and Matthias and their secretive pasts and plots. All that ties The Crows together could help them accomplish the greatest heist the world has seen, or send them crumbling. 

This episode is full of fun theories and discussions and lots of sketchy back alley deals.  So, join me and The Crows for the first part of this epic book!
