Loot by Jude Watson
My rating: 5 of 5 stars
This was such a FUN book! LOOT is a kids book that’s loaded with intrigue, excitement and a really good story.
Marsh watches his father, a jewel thief, fall from a roof in Amsterdam and die. He’s 13 and alone in the world as far as he knows but he’s been along with his dad his whole life and knows to follow the clues he left behind.
In the process, he finds out he has a twin sister, Jules, who he’s been separated from since they were small kids to try and keep the prophecy of their dying together from happening.
Jules and Marsh are sent to a group home where they meet Darius and Izzy. They all break out of the home and go on a huge adventure to steal back the 7 moonstones that Marsh & Jules’s dad stole many years ago and break the curse.
This is a fun, clever book with great characters. I give it two thumbs up! 🙂
