If We Were Villains by M.L. Rio

5.0

This book found me at the right time, I was hitting a slump in my reading and was not enjoying the books I had been reading. I thought this book was beautifully written, and that it is truly a literary gem. To start, the aesthetics of this book are everything, very dead poets society and dark academia, which is everything i could need in a book i think. The blend between the Shakespearean dramatics and the dark modern day dynamics was so beautifully done. I was invested in each of the characters introduced, they were each so complex and had a lot of depth to them. This book will definitely be reread many time by me.
