Life is too short to read bad books.
Well... The Lies of Locke Lamora isn't a bad book.

There are not enough good things to say about this book. It started off slow but the suspense builds until you just can't put it down. The writing was witty and funny at times and the story with all of its plot twists was fantastic. I especially liked how it came full circle in the end. And even though its part of a series it was one story with no cliffhanger ending. Even thieves have honor. A+++

it was okay. not super exciting. lots of pages for the last 50 pages to have all the action and the wrap up.
