Ooohoohoooooo this was FUN! I loved Little Thieves and wasn't sure if we were quite done with Vanja's adventure yet. I don't want to say too much as the summary isn't up yet, but I can't wait to read more. It's dynamic and retains all of the charm of Little Thieves.

Little Thieves was on my top picks list for 2021, and twenty-six pages later, we already have a strong contender for the 2023 list. This book is off to a very fast and very chaotic start, and I am delighted. Looking forward to the next book with great anticipation!

I read the first book and this sampler just made me even more excited for the second! Wish it was coming out a bit sooner, but I'm willing to wait.

I am so so SO excited for this book! I absolutely loved the first book in this series, and I have a feeling I will love this too. It's been great seeing Margaret Owen grow as an author and I am looking forward to reading the whole book when it comes out.

I physically cannot wait to read more of this!!! Little Thieves is phenomenal and Vanja’s shenanigans are impossible to put down.

I will read anything Margaret Owen writes (even if it is only two chapters of a book that won't release for another 8 months)

Painted Devils immediately hooked me. I cannot wait to continue the story in 2023!

Little Thieves was one of my top 10 books of 2021, so when I heard that it was getting a sequel I was beyond ecstatic! Now having read this sneak preview chapter…people, let me tell you…this one is going to be EPIC!!

Based on this little sneak peek tidbit alone (the first two chapters) I can already tell that PAINTED DEVILS is going to be my favorite book of 2023. LITTLE THIEVES is one of my favorite books of all time, and its sequel, PAINTED DEVILS starts off with a bang. Vanja accidentially-kind-of-sort-of starts a cult? Yep! Emerick comes to investigate and ends up getting tangled up in Vanja's nonsense? Yep! Am I losing my mind during the long, agonizing wait for this book? You bet I am! This preview is but a taste of what's to come and I am already beyond desperate for more. I absolutely cannot wait for PAINTED DEVILS! I've already got my copy pre-ordered.
