I love Bardugo's plotting. She weaves a great story every time. It was paced well, and there were twists and turns, leaving me guessing the whole way through. When the end came about, I was surprised by the events.
The reason for the relatively lower score despite excellent plotting is that I just didn't connect with the world, the magic system, or the main character. It was lacking in some way that I just can't put my finger on. I don't really care about the characters or the world enough to really go and read the next novel in the series (but I will anyway to satisfy my completionist tendencies).
