Vicious is definitely one of my favourite reads of all time. The plot is exactly what I’ve been looking for in a book: complex and quick paced. Victor is one of my favourite main characters ever and he is the perfect anti-hero. Though this book lacks in romance, the (reluctant) friendships really shines through. Not to mention, the characters are some of the most interesting characters I’ve ever read. Even if you hate them, you can’t help but enjoy their story. 
Overall I’d rate this book a 5/5 stars and it is for sure one of my favourites of Schwab’s work.
