where was the editor?
-
everything else in this book chef’s kiss, i just couldn’t care less about the constant pov change’s, im still thinking why did stell have a pov?
-
the thing is i love v.e.schwab’s writing but to me there was so much going on that everything that we were supposed care about kind of were swept under the rug of the action and by the end of it, i was just so confused
-
don’t know if i’ll read the third book (i kind of consider vicious now a standalone in my mind)

Once again Schwab doesn't disappoint.
I love the set up of starting from an unknown point and only giving the reader snippets from '3 weeks ago' to 'yesterday afternoon'. I loved putting the pieces together of what the separate characters were doing and seeing it all come together. The anticipation as the time got shorter leading to the climax was really fun to watch unravel.
This is the kind of thing I love. I wish Sydney and Mitch and even June all the best until I meet them again.
