Before reading If We Were Villains, I read The Secret History by Donna Tartt which I adored.
However, at first I was seeing to many similarities between both books : a group of young people studying in a secluded elitist school driven by their love for a subject (here Shakespeare) and then a student tragically disappears.
It took me some time (almost 300 pages in) to overcome this feeling of reading a rewriting of TSH and finally enjoy the book at its true value !
