The Lies of Locke Lamora

I really enjoyed this  - more than I expected. 

The book is a fun romp (if a little dark at times, we're following murders and thieves after all), and because Lynch does a great job making you care about the characters you want to to find out if their schemes succeed or fail (even if sometimes the solutions are a little convenient). I've seen reviews describe the core relationship as one of the best bromances, which I can get behind - I look forward to seeing where the team goes next. 

Lynch uses interludes heavily - though very good at helping with the character and world building, I did find them a bit of a speed-bump on the books momentum. But don't let that put you off...power through the interludes (they aren't very long) and you'll fall back into the action.
