Heist Society by Ally Carter
5.0
A bit like the "Oceans" movies - just with teenagers. But not the normal kind of teenagers.
I confess: I liked the book very much! It's funny, well-written for a YA, the layout is great (especially when you're starting a new "... days before the deadline" chapter), the cover is suitable. Yeah, I like.
The only thing what I don't like is: the boys are drooling too much about Kat when she wore a skirt and showing a cleavage. While her cousin walks the entire day in a short skirt and no one seemed so appealed to it (just some not so important characters like nameless guards, ...).
I don't care too much about the lack of taking much care of art. Yes, I had art as a major in school but you can't write about art at a high level when you're writing a YA book about thieves. That doesn't work. So I'm fine that they just managed it a bit.
