I loved this book but I don’t think it lived up to vicious’ level. I love the strong female rep with Marcella and June. It ended a bit ambiguously which I like cause this way I can assume my own happy ending. I love the relationship between Mitch, Vic and Sydney it’s so cute like a little family. And I love the relationship between Vic and Eli even more. I love seeing it unfold. I didn’t give this 5 stars cause again it wasn’t as good as vicious and I found some parts and POVS a little boring. It was super complex too at some points too so it needs a lot of focus when reading. I adore the way ve Schwab writes so all her books are a delight. One thing that annoyed me is whenever a POC character is introduced she’ll introduce them with their race which is a bit annoying and seems like an afterthought, like if your gonna do that do it with the white cast too. But besides that I liked it and I really wish there were a third book too!!!!
