review: Uncommon Criminals

*2nd book of the Heist series*

Kat's pulled off the greatest heist ever.

She's out of the family business -again.

Although she's still a thief, she's just stealing back items for people.
After a job in Russia, a woman stops her on the streets. She asks Kat for help - using a famous name to help make her case.

She wants Kat to steal the infamous Cleopatra Emerald - the same emerald that Uncle Eddie failed to steal years earlier. Can Kat and her crew pull off the impossible? Or will her ego get in the way?

My Thoughts: I didn't think it was possible to be better than Heist Society - but I was WRONG. It was amazing! I loved the heists. I loved the planning of the heists and the questions of which heist would work best. I'd love a list of heists and their explanations.

I loved how Kat came to understand herself better. I loved the relationship development between Kat and Hale. I LOVE Hale. He's dreamy. All the action, the drama, and the crazy plans exceeded my expectations - which were already pretty high. I can't wait for more of this series.


Cover Thoughts: I LOVE it! I love the details, the emerald in the glasses.

Random Question: Are the names of the heists real? They seem so clever.

Cover Reveal: Uncommon Criminals


Heist Society was one of my FAVORITE books from last year. I'm SUPER EXCITED to see the cover for the sequel out in June (sigh, such a long wait!)

Isn't this cover awesome?

I love the sunglasses - as in the first cover.
Just amazing.
