A deliciously commercial YA page-turner about the daughter of a con artist who is taken hostage in a bank heist.

Nora O'Malley is a lot of things. A sister. An ex. A secret girlfriend. Kind of crooked, but reformed... somewhat.

Nora O'Malley's been a lot of girls. As the daughter of a con-artist who targets criminal men, she grew up her mother's protege. But when mom fell for the mark instead of conning him, Nora pulled the ultimate con: escape.

For five years she's been playing at normal. But she needs to dust off the skills she ditched because she has three problems:

#1: her ex walked in on her with her girlfriend. Even though they've all been inseparable for months, Wes didn't know about her and Iris.

#2: The morning after, they all have to meet to deposit the fundraiser money they raised together. It's a nightmare that goes from awkward to deadly.

Because #3: right after they get in the bank, two guys start robbing it.

But they have no idea who they're really holding hostage.

The robbers are trouble. Nora's something else entirely.

3.5 (Bom)

“The girls i’ve been”

Eu só queria apontar que eu Adoro quando os títulos são explicados dentro do livro, e realmente fazem sentido. E “The girls i’ve been”, fez todo sentido.

Representatividade, protagonista forte, cenas aonde a personagem é extremamente inteligente, Found family trope, ação, traumas E UMA ESCRITA GENIAL.obg

Mas foi meio cansativo as alternadas entre o presente o passado, os flashbacks foram a melhor parte, as cenas do banco foram meio repetitivas. Mas foi bom.

Eh um bom livro. Recomendo.
