A Lesson in Vengeance by Victoria Lee
4.0
This book has really surprised me! A lesbian-dark academia-psychological thriller that has has been hard to put down!
❝[She] saw me in a way no one else could; she saw the black and twisted heart of me. She took my hand and guided me into the darkness. She opened the door, and truth entered, and nothing can undo that now.❞
Felicity Morrow has come back to finish her last year at Dalloway School after her girlfriend's death, Alex. She arrives earlier, so she can have some time to readjust herself before the other students start coming, but she isn't alone; a new student is living in Alex's room. Their first meeting isn't quite friendly, and when the other three students arrive at Goodwin House, Felicity can't help thinking she doesn't fit. The other students fly around Ellis like she possesses a kind of magnetic force. Who is this girl? Why is she so special?
Meanwhile, Felicity finds it hard to stay in the same place she used to be with Alex. She feels like she's haunting her. She can feel the magic of "The Dalloway Five", especially Margery's.
Powerful young women, witchcraft, literature, thirst for knowledge, tragic and mysterious deaths are some of the main ingredients of this story.
I totally recommend it!
