![]() ![]() ![]() Basically, think Ocean’s Eleven with were-dragons! But also add in soooo much real heart underneath all the fun. Sky Hawkins is a teenage wyvern – which means that her family, like every dragon family, is obsessed with treasure…and therefore trained from birth to conduct high-tech (and magical) heists on each other’s treasure hoards! So this is one big fabulous heist adventure with great family dynamics, tons of intrigue and mystery, wonderful magic, lovable characters, and a sweet romance on the side. It was so much fun that I didn’t even care how much time was passing. I actually read this over the holiday season, and it absolutely saved me when I had to spend ages sitting in an out-of-hours doctor’s waiting room with my older son (who had his own book to read). It’s Monday! The sky outside is implausibly blue, I’m planning to bake blueberry muffins today, and it’s time for this week’s Reading Roundup.įirst off, my favorite YA fantasy in ages, one of my very favorite books I’ve read in the past year, and one that I fell head over heels in love with from the first chapter onwards: Sarah Beth Durst’s Fire and Heist, which was fantastic. ![]()
