I’m not usually a fan of the heist genre but this gripped me pretty quickly. Despite having a fair amount of characters each of them were unique and has their own personalities making them easy to tell apart and all of them were likeable. This would probably be a five star if it wasn’t for the ending. It wasn’t all bad but Vin having the ability to take out the lord ruler by herself felt a bit unearned and unbelievable and in general the ending just felt a little out of place with the rest of the story.
Graphic: Violence and Classism
Moderate: Physical abuse, Slavery, Blood, and Abandonment
Minor: Rape and Death of parent
