Quite a nice and easy-going story, basically Ocean's Eleven for teens.
It was fast paced and without much need for thinking, which in this case I found a pleasant read. It was not stupidly-easy, just a no much thinking required kind of story. I would have preferred older characters, since from the cover I assumed the thieves would be in the early twenties. It was ok after the first confusion, though.

Writing leans towards Young Adult in the first part of the book.
An enjoyable book, look forward to the second book in the series.

Required some suspension of disbelief and screamed of Oceans' 11/12/13 but still fun. Still have a pet peeve about books that don't bother to explain the background before jumping into the story.
