Teaser Tuesday: Heist Society


Teaser Tuesdays is a weekly bookish meme, hosted by MizB of Should Be Reading. Anyone can play along! Just do the following:





Grab your current read
Open to a random page
Share two "teaser” sentences from somewhere on that page

BE CAREFUL NOT TO INCLUDE SPOILERS! Share the title & author, too, so that others can add the book to their TBR Lists!


This week my teaser comes from a book I'm reading just for fun after seeing a glowing review for its sequel on a blog. Heist Society is like a teenage version of Ocean's Eleven. It's smart, exciting, and a lot of fun, and I'm really enjoying it! From page 20:


Heist Society     As she dropped back onto the sofa, Kat couldn't remember the last time she'd been speechless. Then again, she also couldn't remember the last time she'd been framed for a crime she didn't commit, kicked out of a boarding school that it had taken her three whole months to con her way into, and then, technically, kidnapped by a guy who could buy a Monet and yet couldn't resist stealing a Vermeer. Speechless seemed okay under the circumstances.


Got a teaser?
Please leave a link so I can stop by!

    Love the teaser! I thought the book was a fun read too. I'll have to get to the sequel one of these days.

    My teasers are for Luck of the Devil by Patricia Eimer and Vanish by Sophie Jordan. Happy reading!
