pickI'm going to say something that may be surprising, considering the acclaim this book has gotten, but I had a hard time getting into this one. The pacing just felt off and the flashbacks seemed intrusive at times.
However, this did have some great characters and world building, and the plot was unique and interesting. I'm calling it a pick overall, but I'm not sure if I'll be continuing the series or not.
pickLoved this book!!! Different type of fantasy with a great story, great background story and a main character Locke who is the best con man ever! You can stop at this book but there are two more that follow Lockes adventures.
bailedBailed for now. I keep it on my phone, though. Because just because I don't feel it right now, I might later? Maybe I'm just too old for this kind of book? The reviews are all really good, but I couldn't make it past the Interlude. I felt no interested to hearing more about Locke and his heart ache for Becky (?)...

pickA little bit Dickens, a little bit Ocean‘s 11.
Worth the hype.
I might be the last person alive to read this & I‘ve had the nice hardcovers for awhile. It‘s just embarrassing.
Again, great banter!! I loved Locke, Jean & Bug! Exactly what I wanted and better than I expected!
Highly recommend!
⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️1/2
