The Lies of Loxke Lamora by Scott Lynch - Book Review

Review by @nightshadesjournal

Rating: ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️

If Kvothe (Name of the Wind) and Mia Corvere (Nevernight) had a love child, Locke Lamora would be it!

He reminded me of these characters so much! His tenacity, resourcefulness, his wits. He is going down as one of my favourite characters of all time.

This book was absolutely brilliant, so gritty and funny, the writing was immaculate.

I loved the found family aspect of this book. Locke, Jean, Galdo, Calo and my little baby Bug 🥹 made the most marvellous put together little family, even Chains in his fatherly role.

This was everything I expect from an epic fantasy, humour, brilliant plot, twists I didn't see coming, suspense, heartbreak 😭

I can't say anything more, other than it'll forever be one of my favourite books of all time.

Avid daydreamer and coffee drinker, obsessor of cats.

Books that have my heart are Name of the Wind, A Court of Mist and Fury, Darling Venom and Losers.

I love gaming on my switch, journaling and constantly rewatching Lotr.

You'll catch me curled up on the sofa with a cup of Lady Grey, reading my latest book with Ludovico Einaudi playing in the background.
