Waiting on Wednesday

This week's WoW has one of my favourite words in the title: Heist. I'm not talking about Heist Society, I'm talking about the new book Tokyo Heist by Diana Renn.

the premise: Violet is saved from a boring summer when Van Gogh paintings go missing from some of her father's clients. When those clients are threatened by the yazuka (AKA Japanese mafia), Violet and her dad head to Japan to track down the missing paintings.

why I'm dying to read it: Not only does it have a fun international flair, it also involves detective stuff (which I love) and the main character is really into manga. Plus the review I read said it has many twists and turns... mysterious!

how long I have to wait: This was actually just released this month but I'm waiting on my library copy. Luckily, I'm first in line (go me!)

while you're waiting: If jet-setting art heists are your thing, check out Heist Society by Ally Carter. Kat, the main character (not me), is also tracking down a painting that's been stolen but she has methods that are a little... different. A really fun read.
