Title: How to Lead A Life of Crime
Author: Kirsten Miller
Release Date: February 21, 2013
Publisher: Razorbill (Penguin imprint)
From Goodreads:
A meth dealer. A prostitute. A serial killer.
Anywhere
else, they’d be vermin. At the Mandel Academy, they’re called
prodigies. The most exclusive school in New York City has been training
young criminals for over a century. Only the most ruthless students are
allowed to graduate. The rest disappear.
Flick, a teenage
pickpocket, has risen to the top of his class. But then Mandel recruits a
fierce new competitor who also happens to be Flick’s old flame. They’ve
been told only one of them will make it out of the Mandel Academy. Will
they find a way to save each other—or will the school destroy them
both?
In the search for flawed characters that have to fight for your affection, what's more perfect than a school filled with criminal prodigies?
Love, love this one! Can't wait for some more steampunk!

I'm not sure about this one. On one hand a school for criminals sounds great but the cover and bblurb don't really sell it for me....
ReplyDeleteMy WOW this week
I should warn you that my comment is nothing related to this post, lol. Wow, you already have a copy of Etiquette & Espionage? I've been dying to get my hands on a copy for so long now! Jealous! How do you like it so far?:)
ReplyDeleteI borrowed an ARC from a friend. The first page made me snicker a couple of times. :)
