Customer Reviews

Evil is my hero! :) She's me at that age!

Love this story! Couldn't stop thinking about it after putting it after my breaks at work. I enjoy and appreciate Libba's writing style. Always felt I was right there as it was unfolding. Didn't know it was a series of books when I purchased the book. Thrilled the story continues on!

Quickly became my top pick

I picked up this book not really knowing what to expect but a bool-tuber I like recommended it and I devoured the series quickly. It picks up fast and doesn't let go and its filled with exciting twists and turns. Definitely recommend!!

A good read for all ages

I really enjoyed this book, even as an adult male. I think the setting is enthralling, and the characters remind me of being in the rebellious age. The teenagers in the story are assured they are right, just like the real world one. I'd recommend this to anyone who wants to escape the "adult" books and have a fun romp with good writing and good characters
