A review by twirl
A Lesson in Vengeance by Victoria Lee

5.0

Witches, murder, mystery, LGBTQ+, dark academia… need I say more?
This! Book! Was incredible from start to finish. The beginning was a bit slow but about a quarter in, it begins to pick up pace. There are quite a few twists, and well done twists too. Plot twists can tend to be either over predictable or unrealistically unpredictable: this book balances its twist between, with even the twists I could predict still leaving my jaw unhinged, gripping my phone as I listen in anticipation.
I think the key to this books success lies in its characters and how they change dynamically and realistically as the plot unfolds (even the minor characters!)
And one of the rarest of all my thriller reads: a satisfying ending.
Read it.
