Pretty much the same review for both books btw -

OMG!!! Wow… so these have been on my physical shelf since 2022 and I finally read them!!! Thank you thank you I’m proud of it too.

Did I love Vicious? Yes. Was Vengeful better? Yeah. To me. Hehehehehehe

I loved the new side characters in Vengeful. Marcella kind of ate even though she was the enemy. June was cool and I think book 3 should have more of her. Which speaking of, book 3 is on the table for the future. OMG!

I think the usage of multiple POVs in both novels really contributes to my enjoyment of them because you get to hear everyone’s backstory through their perspective and you get a glimpse in how they think/view the world.

If you want a fantasy book about superpowers and supervillains ~ read this!!! It also has strong friendships, betrayals, and your jaw will be dropped.

Eli … rip i guess but I feel like he’s not really dead ya know?! He can’t be right?

Sydney realizing Serena never wanted her and so she stopped trying to bring her back … brb I wanted to hug Sydney. Also Sydney is soooo loyal to Victor and Mitch … girlypop believes in found family.

Victor and Eli should have kissed. Just saying there was a lot of angst and tension between them.

Why are murderous women so hot?
I loved this book. This Duology is just amazing and everything that I needed right now and forever.

i really enjoyed this! i found it to be a good sequel, however i think there’s far too much left to be said about this cast of characters and the expansion of the world to make it an entirely successful and logical duology/sequel, so im hoping a third book will come at some point. regardless, it was a cool read, but im just finding myself wanting more. also i definitely think the treatment of female characters didnt improve much from the previous book which is unfortunate.
