How to Steal a Thief by A.J. Sherwood
3.5
Rating: 3.5 Stars
“So you’re owning the craziness, huh?” “Of course. Best way to be insane. Enjoy it.”
I loved Ivan in [b: How to Shield an Assassin], and I couldn’t wait to learn more about the mischievous and mysterious thief in [b: How to Steal a Thief]. Whilst this can be read as a standalone, I’d recommend reading book one in the trilogy first so that you can appreciate the inside jokes/references that the gang makes. The only real complaint I have is in regards to the antagonists—they didn’t really get their comeuppance. There weren't consequences for their greed. Yes, Kyou technically robbed them, when he transferred the proceeds of the stamp collection to Aiden, but to quote Carter “It’s not stealing if you’re stealing it back.” I.e. They didn’t lose anything, because the stamps didn’t belong to them in the first place. I wanted to see them face legal consequences (for harassment, false acquisitions, drugs, bribery, anything!!!). They weren’t out of pocket by the end of the book.
