At this point, I admit this is not my kind of book. Because the exposition is so bad. Because the dialogue and character dynamics are abysmally boring. Or just under developed. I was enticed with words like heist and found family but alas, not the smallest fraction of either of those is actually found in the book. And even if it is, it barely works for me.

Ah, okay it’s getting a bit interesting now. But again, can’t get over the air of these characters being boxed into their character descriptions, given nothing else to go on on. Which makes it harder for me to connect with them or care about their relationships/friendships. It just feels awkward to read, both the dialogue & the back-forth bw them.

98 pages!!! So proud of me :)!! The flowery language is pretentious and the dialogue and the character dynamics seem to be stumbling on their baby feet but we finally seem to be going somewhere so. Going to hang in and give this the benefit of the doubt. But the language/prose, again is awkward and takes me reading it thrice to get some of the meaning. Because what are you saying!!!
