Welcome Back, Fellow Readers!
The last book I read was out of my usual comfort zone for reading. It came highly recommended by a reader I follow on instagram.
Vicious
By V.E.Schwab
From Good Reads:
Victor and Eli started out as college roommates—brilliant, arrogant, lonely boys who recognized the same sharpness and ambition in each other. In their senior year, a shared research interest in adrenaline, near-death experiences, and seemingly supernatural events reveals an intriguing possibility: that under the right conditions, someone could develop extraordinary abilities. But when their thesis moves from the academic to the experimental, things go horribly wrong.
It starts with a question: Are super heroes made or are they born with their abilities? Victor and Eli set out to test the theories for their college thesis and in turn, they both become EOs (ExtraOrdinary = Super Heroes.) Each has their own ability, but soon turn on each other and become arch rivals with their own group of EOs supporting then. Which one will be seen as the hero and which one will be seen as the villain. But, is there really a difference.
Would give this book 4 out of 5 stars.
My first fantasy genre since Harry Potter!
