Heist Society by. Ally Carter

Heist Society (Heist Society, #1)When Katrina Bishop was three, her parents took her on a trip to the Louvre…to case it. For her seventh birthday, Katrina and her Uncle Eddie traveled to Austria…to steal the crown jewels. When Kat turned fifteen, she planned a con of her own—scamming her way into the best boarding school in the country, determined to leave the family business behind. Unfortunately, leaving “the life” for a normal life proves harder than she’d expected.

Soon, Kat's friend and former co-conspirator, Hale, appears out of nowhere to bring Kat back into the world she tried so hard to escape. But he has a good reason: a powerful mobster has been robbed of his priceless art collection and wants to retrieve it. Only a master thief could have pulled this job, and Kat's father isn't just on the suspect list, he is the list. Caught between Interpol and a far more deadly enemy, Kat’s dad needs her help.

For Kat, there is only one solution: track down the paintings and steal them back. So what if it's a spectacularly impossible job? She's got two weeks, a teenage crew, and hopefully just enough talent to pull off the biggest heist in her family's history--and, with any luck, steal her life back along the way.

REVIEW-I wasn't sure what to expect from this book,the synopsis was great but it really didn't do it justice. I cant wait to get my hands on uncommon criminals.I give this book a 4 out of 5 because it wasn't a book that I just couldn't put down, but at the same time it kept me wanting to read it and looking forward to picking it up.
              The over  all plot was beautiful. the characters were brilliant and funny. I loved it when  the guys discovered that Kat had a body, it was just one of those laughing moments .(which i happened to be in class for and everyone looked at me funny.)If you haven't read this you'll find out because this is a must read.My favorite  characters  were Kat and hale  their chemistry was great i just wish the romance would of sped up. But at the same time it was the perfect amount,because it didn't over power the rest of the story.when you read this you can just imagine what it would be like to be a con artist exspecially at our age.Although by the end of the story you are left with alot to think about it was a pleasant ending and i don't know about you but I think I know who Visily Romani really is.( for those who are considering this book stop considering and read it you will not be disappointed.)
