(Note: very light indirect spoilers for this book and the previous one below - nothing explicit)
This series just keeps getting better đ
Iâm a complete sucker for a heist and this was definitely a good one. The planning stages were fun and the execution moved at a blistering pace that never let up until the end. I found myself picking up this book even when I didnât really have time to read because I had to know what was going to happen!
I love the characters in this series, and Iâm really enjoying seeing how they develop âespecially Brody, whoâs really coming into his own without losing any of his snarkiness from the first book. The dynamic between Kovalic and Taylor is really fun, and even Sayers, the new addition to the team who I didnât expect to like I really found myself enjoying.
My only complaint (if I have to have one to balance out me just gushing about this book) is that the villain could feel a bit one-note at times. Her character traits seemed to be âbeautifulâ and âcruelâ, which can be overdone especially for a female villain. That didnât take anything away from my enjoyment however, as I still gave it 5 stars. Given where we left things with her Iâd be very interested in meeting her again in a future book...
I really really hope this series continues - I need to know what happened to Page!
