The Truth About Books: Heist Society by Ally Carter

Hi guys! So this week since United We Spy comes out next week this week we will be reviewing the first book in Ally Carter's other series Heist Society!

THERE ARE SPOILERS IN THIS CONVERSATION IF YOU HAVE NO READ THIS BOOK BE WARNED!
So go read it and come back ;)

~Heist Society~

Taherah Abbas
:D Heist Society was a pretty awesome book. Ally Carter is the only writer (that I've read at least) that can write GREAT books on this kinda genre

Caitlyn Crowe
I also love how she can get both sides of that sort of world, the spies and the thieves

Taherah Abbas
Exactly! I would love to read more stories like this.

Caitlyn Crowe
I have tried to find others who did these sorts of books and I gotta say Ally Carter takes the cake. She makes all of the rest of them (or at least the ones I've found) look bad

Taherah Abbas
You know the first time I heard of Interpol was in Heist Society :P

Caitlyn Crowe 
Omg that’s sort of sad. OH! You know what else I love about Heist Society?

Taherah Abbas
Hale?

Caitlyn Crowe
Him too. But I love how its a family business ;)

Taherah Abbas
Haha yessssss and how once you're in…it's hard to well get out

Caitlyn Crowe
XD Another thing about books with thieves as the protagonists is its wrong, we all know its wrong and its hard to get people to ignore that fact and just enjoy the story

Taherah Abbas
Yeah but Heist Society acknowledges that and I love that Kat and the rest of the gang (sometimes) use their thieving skills for good

Caitlyn Crowe
I love the gang

Taherah Abbas
I SHIP SIMON AND LIZZIE FROM GG...unless he ends up with Gabby then I'm fine with that

Caitlyn Crowe
HOLY CRAP I KNOW!!!! THEY NEVER MEET BUT YOU CAN JUST TELL!!!!!!!!

Taherah Abbas
RIGHT THEY WOULD BE SO ADORABLE

Caitlyn Crowe
Okay I'm just going to say this and get it out of the way: WHAT THE F IS HALE'S FIRST NAME OMFG!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Taherah Abbas
IDK BUT I SERIOUSLY WANT TO KNOW!! Like what kind of unpopular and not so awesome name could it be that even Kat doesn’t know about?

Caitlyn Crowe
IKR!!!! Its gonna be something so obvious and stupid and just ugh. I swear the last line of the last book is gonna be like " My name is....."

Taherah Abbas
I sooooooo expect that to happen except in my head it's like, "And Kat?" "Yeah" " It's W....." THE END

Caitlyn Crowe
GAH!!!!!!!!! I would DIE if that happened!!!!!! I would be so conflicted I would probably throw the book because OMG WHAT IS HIS NAME and at the same time be relieved because it will always be a secret....but then no

Taherah Abbas
I meant the ellipses to be whatever his name was AND THAT BETTER NOT HAPPEN. I WANT TO KNOW HIS NAME

Caitlyn Crowe
I cant help but feel like it will and it will crush all my hopes and dreams (of knowing Hale's name....its become a bigger part of my life than I care to admit...)

Taherah Abbas
Haha so true. Anywaaaays about the plot...I GOT SO CONFUSED FOR SOME OF THE THIEVING CODE NAMES.

Caitlyn Crowe
Like what?

Taherah Abbas
Errrr I don’t remember. The one I did actually get was the Cinderella. And there were like a bunch used as options but only one that was actually used

Caitlyn Crowe
Yeah...I just figured we weren't supposed to get them and moved on...but I may go back and reread it to see if I can figure them out

Taherah Abbas
Plot wise? Heist Society did an awesome job with the climax of how everything went down and just the way they carried out the job was just brilliant

Caitlyn Crowe
I loved the car thing at the beginning that got her expelled

Taherah Abbas
HA yes kudos to Hale and Gabby for that

Caitlyn Crowe
Omg I love what's his face? Pick pocket guy!

Taherah Abbas
NICK!! LOVE HIM TOO

Caitlyn Crowe
AND THE TWINS!!!!!!!!!!

Taherah Abbas
AND RANDOM: OMG THE UNITED WE SPY BOOK TRAILER WILL BE PLAYED BEFORE HART OF DIXIE STARTING OCT. 7th=YESSSSSSSSS

Caitlyn Crowe
Yay...........????

 Taherah Abbas
Kat actually seemed a bit stoic at first but then she was cool and I like that she was the first one to leave the business...or try to at least

Caitlyn Crowe
Yeah, but it didn't work, its in her blood (and Hale's evidently, although he is insanely rich)

Taherah Abbas 
OH and I love the way they met XD

Caitlyn Crowe
I don’t remember if that’s in the first one but me too

Taherah Abbas
It is. Nick asked and Hale answered

Caitlyn Crowe
Ooooohhhh.... cool! I also really love how she meets Nick as well, the whole pick pocket thing.

Taherah Abbas
THAT was awesome especially since she totally figured it out

Caitlyn Crowe
XD IKR!!!!!!! Oh I also really like how there aren't two guys, well not really, its always Hale and instead of her choosing its them working out their issues

Taherah Abbas
I like Nick and Kat as friends ;D Plus Nick seriously helped with getting them together and realizing they liked each other

Caitlyn Crowe
Omg yes! I'm not sure which book its in but I remember this one scene Kat and Hale were fighting on the balcony or deck or something and one of the gang came in and said "What’s going on?" and someone else replied "Mom and dad are fighting again." That just made me so happy

Taherah Abbas
DUDE I WAS GOING TO BRING THAT PART UP AND YES IT WAS THE FIRST BOOK

Caitlyn Crowe
I JUST LOVE IT SO MUCH!!!!!!

Taherah Abbas
Heist Society I think gets 4.5 or 5 stars from me

Caitlyn Crowe
It’s definitely in that area for me too!!!
