All In by Jennifer Lynn Barnes
4.5
adventurous mysterious fast-paced
Plot or Character Driven: Plot
Strong character development: Yes
Loveable characters: Yes
Diverse cast of characters: Complicated

Note: this is the 3rd in a series, I feel like any review you read will have some type of spoiler, even just reading the book description? Just keep that in mind!

4.5/5 stars

General Description: Well, after two books, the adults at the FBI have given in to allowing the Naturals to work on active cases, and the first active case they are on takes place in Las Vegas, Sloane's hometown. Sloane feels like this case is for her to solve. The Naturals of course help her as it seems like a killer is escalating quickly, but will they all be able to catch this killer or will they slip through the Natural's fingers?

The good:
- The set up to book 4 in this book was fantastic.
- I LOVE SLOANE. She and Lia are my favorites and I was so happy to see her backstory in this book.
- The masterful numbers based mystery honestly blew my mind.
- The pacing, as always, was fast, dialogue snappy, and engaging the entire time.

The loss of a half star:
- There were less out there plot twists, but still that same kind of plot twist

Overall: if you're looking for criminal minds in book form, this is it. And if you've read books #1 and #2, definitely keep going.
