A serial killer FMC with a thirst for justice with a dark academia setting? Excellent 👏🏼 A 4.5 star read for me. The dual POVs were well done and the twists were *chef's kiss*.

5.0

WOMEN. I. LOVE. WOMEN. especially when they’re murderous. i loved how the main plot twist was revealed halfway through but i was still on the edge of my seat for the last half, and almost MORE SO because of it being revealed so early. 10/10 recommend & i can’t wait to read her other book “temper”!!

scarlett gets a life sentence :/ FOR SERVING TOO MUCH CUNT!!!!!!!

no but seriously, this was a good read for me, made me feel vindictive. I didn’t realize I was in such need for revenge stories, but I will be indulging in more. also I looked up a fancast for this and people want mia healey as allison and I’ve NEVER been so on board with something before in my life
