Leigh BardugoA modern alternative to SparkNotes and CliffsNotes, SuperSummary offers high-quality Study Guides with detailed chapter summaries and analysis of major themes, characters, and more.

Each of the six main characters suffers the loss of home and family in some way. Choose two of these characters and compare and contrast what the concepts of home and family mean to them. Do they succeed in regaining their homes and/or creating new families?
How does Kaz’s relationship with his monstrous alter ego, Dirtyhands, shift throughout the novel? How does monstrosity both protect and limit him? Ultimately, does Kaz find a way to reconcile his monstrous side and his more human side?
