Are you looking for a new heist book?

From Goodreads: From Greta Kelly, the author of the Warrior Witch duology, comes The Queen of Days, an epic adventure that weaves together a flawed-but-lovable family of thieves, a battle between fallen gods, and stakes high enough to cause vertigo—perfect for fans of The Lies of Locke Lamora and Six of Crows.

The Queen of Days has

✨A mysterious character named Tass who eats time

✨Dangerous mission to defeat a god

✨Crew of misfits/thiefs

✨Portal to different dimension

By far my favorite part of the book was Tass. Since she’s not human, her interactions and conversations were always funny, and I enjoyed her perspective and getting to unravel her past as the story went on. Her time-eating power was so interesting and unique, and I loved the way it was explained.

As much as I love a good band of misfits and thieves, I do wish this book had a stronger plot. I felt like there were more conversations than action. But I did enjoy the story overall.

VERDICT: ⭐⭐⭐⭐/5

Thanks so much to Harper Voyager for my arc!
