A review by thebasiccritic
Vicious by V.E. Schwab
5.0
Incredible storyline!
This is the first book I’ve read of V.E. Schwab’s. I’ve always heard great things and finally had the chance to pick this one up.
Our story starts off with two friends, Eli and Victor, who are medical school students. They’ve reached their thesis and have to choose a topic. Eli chose EOs (ExtraOrdinaries). Research takes a turn and there sparks our story.
I love the layers of storytelling; going from past to present. It helps set the scene so well. Granted, there were a couple spots where I had to remind myself what “time” we were in.
The side characters were just perfect and they meshed well with Eli and Victor’s stories too.
I couldn’t stop thinking about this book. Definitely worth the read and I can’t wait to pick up “Vengeful.”
