Ace heist? Hell yeah!
That was basically the premise of this book and it truly delivered. It's a very fun book about a group of ace friends, a found family coming together to support the protagonist Jack prove that Peter Carlevaro has plotted against his mother to put her in jail.
I like how every character and relationship in this book was so complex and interesting, whether it was the siblings, parents, friends or the romance. Speaking of romance, I'm all here for the different kinds of aces in this book, including the ones who feel romantic attraction! As an ace, I truly crave the rep. I like how the ace rep wasn't in your face or trying to teach you something. The characters were just being themselves and living their lives regardless of their gender and sexuality.
The plot was quite fun, I enjoyed all the spying and hiding and the quirky group dynamics. The plot twist in the end was surprising as well and overall this is just a good, well-rounded read.
