SUCH A GREAT BOOK OMG 

i dont care if victor is an asshole, he killed serena, nothing else matters. to be honest, all characters in this book are made to be either currupt or currupted by proxy (ie. sydney and mitch), the façt both eli and victor are terrible people is kinda the point, they both suck, eli just has the plus of being a fucking religious fanatic and dumb as hell meanwhile victor can actually use logic and think rationally. serena is the type of character i hate the most, had everything to be the smartest person in the room and yet decided to be the stuppiest, and died for that. the ending is bittersweet as sydney is forced to live with the people that killed her sister, while believing eli was the one that did it and deeply trusting both mitch and victor. nonetheless, im happy my e quartet (or quintet? is dominic with them now?) is alive, and look, most of them only died once… or twice
