A review by katiegraham00
Portrait of a Thief by Grace D. Li

3.0

Started really slow and not quite the book I was expecting but I was happily surprised. This book wasn't a true plot driven heist novel as I expected. Instead it was more of a character study and exploration of asian-american identities with fun heist moments on the side. You have to suspend disbelief a few times to get into the story because it's can be ridiculous at times. Still a fun and enjoyable read, but give it about 120 pages to get going and have better expectations going in
