A review by cheerbrarian
The Good Thief by Hannah Tinti

4.0

This is a great story of an orphan boy and his adventure's as he tries to find his place in the world. It has similar themes to something like Tom Sawyer and reads just like it: while there are clear dark villains, even the "good" character have their flaw. This techniques really adds to the raw humanity of this book and creates very lovely characters. I found this book to be comfortable, in that the plot was similar to classic tales, but it still provided surprises in the end.
