4.5

 4.5 rounded up! I'm so glad that Victorious is coming, that ending sure is a hanger.

This book was perfect from start to end! It kept me constantly on the edge of my seat and was such a great follow up to the first book. Can’t recommend highly enough

Blew through this one just like I did with Vicious. Even though she's

the main villain, I really loved Marcella's character

. I felt like her motivations were very clear and as a woman reading this, honestly pretty relatable at times. I also enjoyed getting some more insight into Eli and other major characters. Fast read, fun plot, interesting characters, and well written, what more do you need? 

The ending felt almost unfinished! Is there another book coming out??
