Unfortunately, leaving “the life” for a normal life proves harder than she’d expected.

When Kat turned fifteen, she planned a con of her own-scamming her way into the best boarding school in the country, determined to leave the family business behind. For her seventh birthday, Katarina and her Uncle Eddie traveled to Austria…to steal the crown jewels. I recommend it / this series if you want something light (tweenish), easy, fun with twists and turns plus a big scheme to read.When Katarina Bishop was three, her parents took her on a trip to the Louvre…to case it. Anyway, this second book was really interesting and has drawn me into the series fully. I still do like the Gallagher Girls series more, but it’s not right to compare the two because they are different. And, we need more Hale and Kat being playful and not mad. This is obvious, but we all need more Hale.Can he be in the background more? Actually I want to see all the secondary characters more! I want to know more about Kat’s father as well since he married into the family and wasn’t born into it.

There are obviously secrets, right? I trust we will find out soon. I want to know the secrets about Kat’s mother’s death.I think it would be cool to see a fun love triangle between her, Simon, and Nick. I want to see the gorgeous Gabrielle have a love interest / story line.Yup, Ally Carter has done it again she has created another great series. A lot of ploys and distractions occur before what I see as the correct ending takes place, so I think this book can be an enjoyable read for everyone.

Though I wasn’t fooled with the ending and was able to predict the outcome, I had an engaging time seeing the journey play out. I like the slow progression between her and Hale. Ally, the author, is really skilled with that. Our protagonist, Kat, grows up so much in this, and that’s awesome to witness. It can be because the world has been set up and the ‘crew’ along with other familiar faces is back, but I had an exciting time following the adventure these characters take. However, this second one was a big improvement from the first, and now I am excited for the third book and the release of the fourth one. Woah! I know I wasn’t fully satisfied with the first book because I still preferred this other series I read last year by the same author Gallagher Girls. Working on returning stolen art to its original owners, she knew the stakes were high when asked to steal Cleopatra’s Emerald, but how can she turn away from a mission with the name Visily Romani attached to it? Even if the gem is cursed… ~Spoiler Free Book Review: Uncommon Criminals (Heist Society #2) by: Ally Carter ~Īfter the success of Henley, Katarina (Kat) Bishop has been riding on a high.
