A Lesson in Vengeance by Victoria Lee
5.0

Wow. Just… wow.

This story takes so many twists and turns that it fully traps you inside it. It haunted my thoughts during the day, and my dreams during the night. This was absolutely the perfect book to read during spooky season.

I love the hint of magic, romance, mental illness and mystery. The book has amazing lore that fully incapsulates everything I thought would be dark academia. It matched the fantasy I had of schools with a long and maybe mysterious past.

The characters are really interesting as well. I would have loved to maybe get a few inside chapters on Ellis’ thoughts. I think that would have been rather interesting.

It has been a long while since I read a book like this. The story and setting is in my eyes rare and that’s something I appreciate.

I’m going to let my friends borrow this book over and over again, till it looks like Alexs’ copy of ‘The Secret Garden’. This book deserves to be read by many many eyes
