This was an interesting premise that reminded me a bit of Ally Carter's books like Heist Society and Gallagher Girls. I liked the main characters and I found their variety of skills to be unique and an interesting mix in how they interact with each other. I read this for a book club and will probably finish out the series at a later time!

I was not a huge fan of the love triangle because I think both of the guys involved with it are pretty meh; one of them is way too egotistical for his own good and the other exhibits an unhealthy amount of brooding. I hope we learn more about the characters and their backgrounds with future books!!
