If I get ten spare bucks, it's going for a 30-pack of Schlitz.

I reread Lies before starting Republic of Thieves and yeah. There's a lot more swearing in the latter.

Just finished Republic of Theives and thoughts in no particular order


I thought the book suffered for not having a big confidence game at its center. I want to see Locke and Jean outsmarting everyone.
I'm not sure what to make of it being Sabetha in the painting. Why would anyone believe that its even remotely real?
Patience was a bitch. Just further cements the magi as being assholes and I thought her 'arc' was really well done.
The flashback scenes, while providing a few chuckles, seemed pretty unneccesary. I get that we were supposed to learn about Locke and Sabetha, but again, it didn't seem like a game most of the time.

I'm worried that the quality of the books has declined from 10/10 to 9/10 to 8/10.
