It's really hard to pick because I love them all!

...But if I were to favor one POV a teeny tiny bit more, it will most likely be Kaz. He's so interesting because he's trying to do good but in his own twisted way. He is emotionally and physically scarred. He's calculating and greedy. Gaining his trust isn't easy, and, at times, he's so cruel that it scares me. Yet, through all this, he's trying to do good things for his friends and especially for Inej.

I like Kaz not because he's this cool "dark, gloomy, emo" character, but because of how well Bardugo built up his past. Through all his misfortunes, he refuses to step down. He seeks revenge. She gave him a strong yet interesting motive that's different than most other YA novels that I've read. Actually all of the SoC casts had flaws that made them seem selfish and weak, yet, they're all so dang interesting because of it.
