Thieves' Gambit by Kayvion Lewis
4.0

⭐️ Rating - 4

Although targeted at Young Adult/Teen readers, the book captivated me with its heart-racing suspense! It reminded me of a Hunger Games-style scenarios (minus the un-aliving) and Ocean's Eleven heists.

I appreciated the diversity of the characters and found the main character, Ross, to be a formidable and tough young woman. The witty exchanges between characters were a delight, and the development of friendships was heart-warming. However, the twists and turns towards the end left me astonished and eager for a sequel.

Learning that this book is being adapted into a movie, I am certainly looking forward to watching it!
