Our first Six Of Crows question has arrived on our #ALIASNGGBookClub. If you are not on Facebook but want to join the chat – here is the Week 1 question.

Six Of Crows Question 1:

Six Of Crows author Leigh Barbugo introduces Kez Brekker, Inej Ghafar and Jesper Fahey as members of Per Haskell’s gang known as the Dregs. Inej describes Kez’s appearance as ” the picture of restraint” (p.25, Chapter 2) in tailored dark vests and trousers but learns that Kez is playing the part of an upstanding mercher. He tells her, “I’m a business man” (p. 25, Chapter 2), even though he is a thief.

Do you feel Kez dresses the way he does to mock or be seen as intimidating in the gang?
