A ver... me ENCANTAN las historias de harem inverso. LAS AMO.
Mi problema con esta saga es la protagonista principal, Bernardette. Nada, tiene menos profundidad que un charco.
Para ser justa, TODA la historia tiene menos profundidad que un charco.
Los chicos están buenos, ajá, y tiene unas cuantas escenas explícitas. Y nada más.
No voy a hacer la advertencia de lo tóxico de los vínculos y de lo irreales que son varias cuestiones, porque a mi edad es OBVIO. Claro que no dejaría que alguien con poca madurez emocional leyera esto, porque la romantización de la violencia y del "amor al agresor" es exacerbada. Asqueante, de hecho, mirando las estadísticas de abuso y asesinato de mujeres y niñas en mi país, delitos perpetrados en un 90% por sus parejas/familiares cercanos. Me queda claro que es muy de blanca-clasemedia-pequeñoburguesa-vidasanaysalva la idealización de ciertas situaciones como "liberadoras" y de los vínculos violentos y enfermos como "rebeldes con causa". La violencia SIEMPRE es violencia. Y no, no hay NADA que justifique los maltratos y los abusos. NADA.
Bajo su propio riesgo, hago la advertencia.
P.D.: No sé maso qué estatura se considera "alto" en sus regiones, pero en la mía, 1,80 m no alcanza para que sea "un muro impenetrable"... *ojos en blanco*

Did I like this book? Yes. I was in my why choose era and this fell into it perfectly. Would I say it was phenomenal, not but it was good.
We have Bernadette Blackbird who envokes the group "HAVOC" to help her achieve the revenge she wants on the people that deserve it. She knows they're good for it since they literally bullied and terrorized her all last year.
They agree but in like all why choose bully romances nothing is easy and then hate turns to love and its all kind of predictable but cringey at the same time

Good reverse harem. Bad boys and bad girl. They’re in a gang but like Robin Hood style.

I can't tell you how many times I've reread this series. It's one of my absolute favourite RH.
I love Bernie, and her boys. Oscar is my absolute favourite of her men.
If you love RH, then definitely read this series.

Make no mistake: when he smiles, angels cry.
She has nothing to lose, except for her sister. She's already lost one. And so she makes a deal with the devil(s).
And I loved every single word of it.

I’m not sure if that ending was my favorite, but this was a really engaging, unique read. I was very hesitant, especially because it’s set in high school but it’s really “high school” and it doesn’t really try to achieve any type of realism. This also felt longer than its ~350 pages, which is a compliment in my book. I’m interested to see where the story goes, but I am a tad worried the plot will spin out of control.

I love this series so far it’s amazing. There’s plenty to live and hate just like any book and when I say that I mean character wise. Ugh beautiful.
Please read.

Favorite quotes:
H.A.V.O.C. Boys.
Hael, Aaron, Victor, Oscar, and Callum.
Their leader, Victor, turns around, leaving his open locker behind him, and crosses his inked arms over his equally inked-up chest. He's a fucking monster, this boy, six foot five with eyes like flint, and a mouth that's a hot slash of menace across the bottom of his handsome face. Like everyone else at Prescott High, he's got a history that's as dark as his violet-tinged black hair.
Callum smiles. It's not a nice smile. It's a smile nightmares are made of. His lips are full and pink, but I’m not fooled by that pretty-boy face of his. Cal’s blond hair hides the scars on his forehead, and the lowered hood of his sweatshirt helps shadow the ones on his throat. Blue eyes watch me curiously across the surface of the beat-up cafeteria table as he drums navy-painted fingernails on the edge of his tray.
Oscar Montauk greets me, standing up from his seat and staring down at me through a pair of rectangular-framed glasses. With his dark hair, aristocrat face, and sharp smile, he should be at Oak Valley Prep with all the rich dickheads. The thing is, Oscar Montauk isn't rich, and even if he is tall, and slender, and wears glasses … I once saw him curb stomp a guy. Plus, he's coated in ink and piercings like all the rest of them. They stop at his neck, fingers of color crawling out from under the collar of his shirt.
“When you’ve been lied to by everyone around you, when you have nothing else, you realize the one currency you can carry is truth. So a single word does have meaning. A promise does hold importance. And a pact is worth carrying to the grave.”
This time, I'm not kissing the prince to become the princess, I'm tonguing the villain to guarantee the destruction of others.
See, that's the thing with pain. Once it finds you and grabs hold, it doesn't let go easily. It's always there, a demon with reaching claws.
Confucius says dig two graves before
embarking on a journey of revenge.
But what if that revenge is the only thing keeping you alive? And what if the people you're seeking revenge on deserve it? If Batman had just killed the Joker from the get-go, how many more people would still be alive? Sometimes the bad guys have to die, so if I have to dig two graves, so be it. Better than digging three.
