I've been in the worst slump with fantasy lately. Almost every book I've read has fallen flat or I've lost my interest a quarter of the way through. That was certainly not the case with Malice. I loved every second and had a tough time putting it down. There was never a dull moment, the story didn't drag, and the characters were exquisite!
It's actually a little tough for me to write an in-depth review about this because there was literally nothing I disliked about the book. I almost feel like that's enough of a review. It's sapphic (with mostly closed-door sexual content). It's a great twist on a classic fairytale. There are predictable moments but also ones that blow your mind. It's overall just an incredible book that deserves way more hype!
I seriously can't wait to get my hands on Misrule. I'm dying to find out what happens next for these characters!
