I received a copy of this book from the author for an honest review.
This was a nice sequel to the Syndicate and while I liked it and there were some really fun scenes I just didn’t love it the way I did the first one. Mostly because I love the time travel aspect and as this one takes place in Stassi’s time there wasn’t any of that to enjoy. Sure the future where Stassi lives was interesting and imaginative BUT its a book about time travelling thieves so I want time travel! The other main gripe I had was none of the questions left hanging at the end of book one are addressed. We don’t find out why Charles was allowed to stay and there if very little in the way of progress in Stassi’s hunt for answers about her past.
I did enjoy the glimpses we got of Stassi’s life before she became a time travelling thief and I still love the friendship between Molly & Stassi. In terms of romance Charles is fine but I was too distracted by my annoyance of not knowing why he stayed/was allowed to stay – waiting for the other show to drop so to speak to really become invested in his character or their relationship.
