My oh my. If you'd said to me that I would love a book about ass-kicking drag queens, murder mysteries, daring heists, sweet romances and spinning action scenes... I'd probably have believed you. Pick this up, just do it. Also, look at that cover. Total insta-cover-love
Okay, what was so good, then? I don't know. I liked the story, about a spoiled rich girl trying to create some action in her life, ending up loving the action and becoming a thief. Getting in over her head on a job and her personal life crumbling before her eyes. With her band of drag queens. I liked the characters, each one unique in their own way. I loved the friendship. I loved the way the romance was low-key - even though I would have liked to know about the romances around Margo.
Something not so great? Well, if you're going to have multiple points of views, I would love for it to be consistent. Don't tease us with the boys sides to the story and then give us all Margo. That's probably the least good thing about this book. And it's not an awful thing. I just felt... unsatisfied, that's all.
What should one read it? If you're looking for an action-filled, interesting, smart and including rainbow-book with great characters, a mystery to be solved and some deadly outcomes, you should read this.
