Zarek was a big mystery to me after the last book and I wanted to see what type of woman would get through to him. And lo and behold, it was Astrid! I loved delving into his history and seeing his inner thoughts. He wasn't the completely grumpy loner that he came across as, he was actually a really lonely guy that didn't feel like he was wanted or liked by anyone after a painful past. I so felt for him. And so did Astrid, who managed to melt his hard exterior to see the soft, gentle guy beneath.

There are still a lot of unanswered questions in regards to Acheron, he seems to be some sort of demi-god/Atlantean/god killer hybrid that scares even Artemis. Cannot wait to read his story.

I didn't enjoy this as much as the other three. Nora's whiney-ness just got to me in this and her being in charge of a Nephilim army when she's dating a fallen angel just seemed a little strange.
 
A lot of questions were answered in this in regards to just about everything and if I'm honest I skipped over description looking for the conversational parts because it seemed to go on for a long time, being dragged out.
 
I liked Dante. I never realised how wrong I could be about a character until this book. I wont spoil it but Jeez.
 
It was a good ending but I kind of think I'd lost interest in the series by the end.

Movie Favorite

"This adaptation of the D. H. Lawrence novel examines the relationships between two sisters and their respective romantic partners in post–World War I England. Ken Russell does a fascinating job of exploring themes of jealousy, lust, homosexuality, fidelity, and social class in a challenging and often pointed way. He turns the notion of virtuous love on its head and, in true Russell fashion, throttles the characters and the audience, unflinchingly asking them the deeper questions that we typically dare not even ask ourselves. There are breathtaking locations, arresting cinematography, and a wrestling scene that makes Viggo Mortensen’s nude knife fight in Eastern Promises look tame. As with all Ken Russell movies, be prepared to have this one on your mind for a while after the credits have rolled."

Leanne Crabtree (480 KP) rated Perfect Scoundrels (Heist Society, #3) in Books

4.5 stars.

These kids and just the whole "family" Kat has are amazing. Geniuses!

Not my favourite book in the series, since they didn't steal a painting or a jewel or anything as valuable or famous, but just the ability to come out on top and pull off the impossible (as usual!) has given it that flair (and me, a huge smile).

I've been reading some reviews on Goodreads and it seems people thought this was going to be a trilogy but after reading this I've realised there are still a few unanswered questions floating about so I hope the author will write another story in which we find out Hale's first names and the identity of Visily Romani.

I may also have to try the authors Gallagher Girls series too!
