À propos de cet audio

 “The most must-read of all must-reads.” —Marie Claire

“A kickass debut from start to finish.” —Colson Whitehead, author of The Underground Railroad

Lee Cuddy is seventeen years old and on the run.

Betrayed by her family after taking the fall for a friend, Lee finds refuge in a cooperative of runaways holed up in an abandoned building they call the Crystal Castle. But the façade of the Castle conceals a far more sinister agenda, one hatched by a society of fanatical men set on decoding a series of powerful secrets hidden in plain sight. And they believe Lee holds the key to it all.

Aided by Tomi, a young hacker and artist with whom she has struck a wary alliance, Lee escapes into the unmapped corners of the city—empty aquariums, deserted motels, patrolled museums, and even the homes of vacationing families. But the deeper she goes underground, the more tightly she finds herself bound in the strange web she’s trying to elude. Desperate and out of options, Lee steps from the shadows to face who is after her—and why.

A novel of puzzles, conspiracies, secret societies, urban exploration, art history, and a singular, indomitable heroine, The Readymade Thief heralds the arrival of a spellbinding and original new talent in fiction.

3, but that's being charitable.
So, I'm going through my Audible library, giving a second listen to my old downloads while at work. I'm down to the ones I was less than enthused about.
I listened to this with the intention of eviscerating it, because I knew that I hadn't enjoyed it the first time around.
But honestly? It's late, I'm tired, and it's not worth the bother.
A thin YA masquerading as quirky, intellectual adult fiction, with a staggeringly silly ending.
I wonder how Duchamp would have felt have g his work used in this way?
The best thing about this clunker was that it encouraged me to read more about Marcel Duchamp.
