"The Lowes didn't tell their children monster stories so they could slay them. The Lowes told them so their children would become monsters themselves."

All Of Us Villains follows a small town called Ivernhath where recently, the true nature of their town and seven famous families has been revealed, every twenty years, the families breed a champion that will enter a death game and in this book, the game is about to begin again with seven new champions! 

I loved All Of Us villains, the atmosphere was amazing, the plot was interesting and kept me on the edge of my seat hoping my faves would survive! I loved the characters and the world building.

"The monsters had shrouded the room in darkness and Alistair stood hurriedly his head dizzy. Sick as he was, he still knew which monsters were the worst. Those who sat before him. No horror story compared to this one"

My favourites were definitely Alistair, Isobel and Gavin I would die for all three of them honestly, but I was worried going into this with four POV's and seven characters but it worked, it wasnt bogged down with lore but you got to know them all without getting confused. The histories of each of the families was revealed and again you dont get bored of the information because you want to learn more about each character. 

THE. ENDING. I. AM. TERRIFIED. Oh my god that ending I am not ready for this sequel !!!! 

Also didnt love how one relationship felt like instalove but it's a YA after all😂
