That being said, I think going into this book with the correct expectations is going to make or break your experience. If you are looking for some psychotic serial unalivers that are academic enemies & end up equally psychotic lovers, and enjoy the nitty gritty details of how they unalived their vics & got away with it, this is for you.

I honest-to-God do not know how to rate this one. This book is on a whole new caliber for my reading genre.
"The unholy way in which I’m about to take her would make angels repent."
I feel like that should've been TW enough.
It's chilling. It does not aim to make you understand cold-blooded killers but it does give you lens to their activities. It's goosebumps-inducing. I was actually very afraid that the authors would try to make me sympathize with killers but no. This story truly is about villains, REAL COLD-BLOODED VILLAINS. Psychopats, if you will. Also, the way they think and their activities are disgusting, terrifying, and totally abhorrent.
