An Education in Malice is quite the story. I found myself invested in the characters right from the beginning. I appreciated the content warnings at the start of the book a lot to understand what I was getting myself into - the story is complicated, morally grey. I appreciated that sex and sensuality were not the total purpose of the book, but rather fit into the plot like a key in a lock.
Graphic: Abandonment, Blood, Body horror, Emotional abuse, Death, Grief, Sexual content, and Toxic relationship
Moderate: Gore, Injury/Injury detail, and Gaslighting
