Thieves' Gambit
by Kayvion Lewis
I think Kayvion Lewis delivered with a fun, fast paced action-mystery heist story! With elements of the well know trope "kids fight to death to win big prize" only a little less deadly.
She's given us a diverse cast from different cultures and continents, each with their own little thing as a thief and with motives and intentions I couldn't see from the start and were also quite unsure about throughout the book, which is great for the suspension of it all.
Loved the romance and friendship that formed during the Gambit, also the rivalries and betrayals and the twist at the end had me hitting my pillow in disbelief and anger.
I have to say though, some coincidences that helped the MC were a bit too convenient and also maybe the characters were a little crazy skilled, but it's fiction so I don't care that much about it being a little unrealistic at times
So it has done it all and I cannot give it any less than 4 starsâ¨
