I thoroughly enjoyed this and wholly recommend it. Every coincidence - or fate - and every character's perspective enriched the story greatly. 
I loved Eli's and Victor's dynamic - wished the end would have been just a bit longer, to see more of them.

V.E. Schwab strongest writing is when she's writing villans. In vicious all characters are villains.

There's a sexual relationship between two characters that isn't consensual/the concent is extremely dubious. This is because

one of the characters has mind controling powers which makes everyone do as she says
