“You’re in suite 792, yeah,” Bobby said, but Hale didn’t pause to be impressed or wonder about Bobby’s seemingly omniscient font of knowledge.”Ĭarter, Ally. What do you think about The Grift of the Magi? Follow me on Twitter at ( ).įavourite quote: ““We’re at the Imperial Hotel,” Hale said. Bitter sweet, without any tragedy.ĭo I really have to say I will certainly continue reading Ally Carter’s work? Not If I Save You First, anyone?

I have always liked Heist Society endings. This seems to be a trademark of Ally Carter’s work. I am not even going to mention the quick pace of this book. There is a genuine air of family about the characters, without spilling over into mafia tough love. Their operations come with high moral codes.

The Heist Society world has always fascinated me. Did I mention the story was just fun to read? I think the romance really shows how Kat has … Is growing. But she is now involved with Hale, so there are romantic elements. We can instantly see Kat is still the same old scheming, compassionate person. Considering Kat is in the business of stealing back, and her family’s views on stealing from charities, it is not hard to convince Kat to become involved. So someone has stolen one of the Magi’s gifts to Jesus. And, for me, there is nothing more awesome than my last review being on a series I’m crazy about. And considering this is Ally Carter, it can only get better. There is nothing as refreshing as catching up on characters from a series that ended years ago. I think I now understand why Harry Potter and the Cursed Child did well, despite being the least among Harry Potter works. It stands alone, but if you want read more about Kat and her crew check out Heist Society, Uncommon Criminals, and Perfect Scoundrels.” The Grift of the Magi is a Heist Society novella and is approximately half the length of the other novels in the series. Now it’s up to Kat and her crew to steal it back. Kat’s family and Interpol might be opposite sides of most jobs, but someone just stole Christmas. The Magi Miracle Network was set to auction off a very rare, very valuable Faberge egg two days before Christmas, but the egg’s been stolen and now the charity’s reputation-and their future-is on the line. So that’s why Kat’s surprised when an Interpol agent comes to her one snowy evening, asking for Kat’s help. To many it wouldn’t matter that she now uses her considerable skills to re-steal valuable works of art and return them to their rightful homes. It is with a heavy heart I type out this last review. I have enjoyed the few months of writing book reviews.

I will also still review books by request. I will still occasionally write fiction related posts, and film reviews of a select number of films. Like I said last week, this is my last book review on TM Blayte Unsilenced.
