While you read this story, I guarantee you will think you know how it will end but you will be wrong! Masterful magic trick with the plot. Immensely enjoyable and very well done.

Bluff is the story of a failing magician and her emotional immaturity. She gets caught up in a poker game based con. I enjoyed the story and the journey right up to the end where nothing paid off.

I went into this book blind and I think that was a good way to jump in! I was getting bored around the middle, but I'm so glad I stuck around for the ending. Upon reflection this book felt very meta in the end and I feel like I really ended up loving it because of how fun the ending was!

Not my usual style of book. It was more entertaining and intense than I thought it would be. I enjoyed it.
