Heist Society
review 1: Heist Society was fabulous and I was expecting to love this book, sadly I was disappointed. All the ingredients were there for an exciting caper and it was well-written but most of the characters fell completely flat. The exceptions were Kat, the 15 yr old mastermind behind a large art heist the year before and Maggie, her nemesis in this book. I liked Kat's character development in this installment (and her desire to prove herself after making some major lapses in judgement) and Maggie was just a great foe. Unfortunately, the other characters, including Kat's cousins Gabriella and twins (the twins do not seem capable of stealing a pack of gum, let alone assist in a major heist) as well as Hale were almost devoid of personality. Readers looking for major developments betwe... moreen Kat and Hale in a romantic sense (I was hoping for something...more) will be disappointed. Overall, not as good as HS but still enjoyable. Grade: 2.5/5
review 2: Quick Thoughts:1. Not really sure what happened in the end. I'm still confused. 2. Kat and Hale were really well developed. We got to really see into their minds and why they make certain decisions. 3. I love the heists. They're fun and adventurous and always make you think. 4. The rest if the characters weren't very well developed. I can't even remember their names. 5. I liked the added family aspect in this book. It was in the first one but this book really emphasized on it. less
