A Game of Hearts and Heists by Ruby Roe

3.0

strange strange pacing and strange strange conflict - unfortunately the two mcs voices were so indistinguishable I literally had to go back to the beginning of every chapter to check who’s perspective I was in 😇 their characters blended into one another more and more as the book progressed too :((( the pacing was also questionable with the first three quarters of the book leading up to the main heist (this part was actually kinda fun!) but the fantasy aspects in the last quarter felt extremely underdeveloped and made the entire book fall flat. the characters reasonings for doing things and their lack of maturity & understanding during the final conflict also felt unrealistic and extremely frustrating :( the chemistry between the two mcs was definitely there but that’s kind of all the book has going for it 🫣 it is super accessible and quick to read tho so 3 stars #ilovelesbians
