5.0

This book was everything I needed and more. A complex story full of morally grey characters, it was perfect.
Eli is driven by religion and the belief that he is no longer himself. Maybe he was right and something is missing, but his self-righteousness refuses to allow him to see it would be missing from him too. Victor wants to put an end to Eli's reign but has questionable methods and motivations.
 

Perfection. V.E. Schwab is brilliant.
