[Gesare · Rating 4 out of 5]

The Bandit tells the story of someone who struggles to make ends meet, finally catches a break, then loses it all trying to prove a point and please the wrong people. It’s sad in parts, especially when you see how success can make someone forget where they came from.

Thirsty Kipsowet captures the highs and lows of life so well, reminding us why people pleasing is dangerous, and pride can cost you everything! This is a relatable read, and I’d definitely recommend it.
