Wonderful book! Pacing wasn't what I was expecting but had a good time throughout it. I really look forward to the other books in the series!

Boys doing things and they’re good at it. Good for them. I guess this is an exciting book. Technically it is pretty well written. I don’t know why it felt like a slog.

so deserving of its status! and it was cool to realize how books published later, which I loved reading while growing up, were clearly influenced by Locke Lamora.
