Book #11 "Heist Society" by Ally Carter:Ok so if you happen to be one of those people that walk into banks or museums and suddenly find yourself wondering how, if perhaps you were a different person, you would go about robbing the place. Well join the club if you are! And maybe that says something disturbing about our personalities but what can I say? It's not like I ever go through with it or anything.
Anyways if you are one of these said people then chances are you would probably really like "Heist Society" its all about 5 teenager robbing one of the worlds best museums (and getting away with it). Kat Bishop is the heroine of the story and its not like she is going into steal 5 priceless paintings for the fun of it, she is actually trying to clear her father's name and somehow get away with it.
Now, and maybe this is just me, but every time I read one of these books or watch a movie where they go and pull of this huge crime I can't help but think 'Gosh, they make that look so easy' so I guess what I'm saying is: is it possibly for it to really be that easy?
I mean sure you have to know your stuff but maybe it is kinda like asking someone who has never played the piano to play something by Beethoven and they have no idea how to even start but then go ask someone who has been playing for years and they can sit down and play it no problem. Maybe it is just a practice kinda thing? Not that I am saying that stealing is right or whatever but it is kinda fascinating in its own kind of way for some reason.
Overall I thought it was a pretty good book :) it is number 1 in a group of 3. (yes I will be reading the other ones at some point) On another note, still working my way through book #12: "Frankenstein" next book up for #13 is going to be "Harry Potter and the Half-Blood Prince" by J.K.Rowling. More to come soon.
Until next time,
