Family Quotes in Heist Society

How we cite our quotes: (Chapter.Paragraph)

Quote #1

"I'm out of the family business." [...]

"But are you out of the family?" (2.43 – 2.44)

If you don't like what your family is doing, you can run away for a while, like Kat does when she goes to Colgan School. But can you ever truly be out of your own family?

Quote #2

[The bedroom] was beautiful but sad, Kat thought. It needed to feel a beating heart. (3.53)

Kat's taking in Hale's parents bedroom here. Her description suggests that Hale's parents aren't really involved in his life in all. As someone with a dead mother and an absent father, Kat is pretty attuned to Hale's lack of support on the family front.

Quote #3

It wasn't until years later that [Kat] realized it hadn't been a fun family outing—that actually they'd been casing the Louvre at the time. (4.1)

We guess the family that steals together, stays together.
