adventurous dark funny tense medium-paced
  • Plot- or character-driven? A mix
  • Strong character development? No
  • Loveable characters? Yes
  • Diverse cast of characters? No

4.5

the fact that i’ve already seen all the oceans 11/12/13 movies (and the sting, of course) made me want another heist of that proportion. well, i got that here. and it was high fucking fantasy. locke lamora is a detestable (but charming) man and i love him so much. him and his gentleman bastards are probably the best characters i’ve seen in a while. i loved this book so much.
