Vicious - Blog Posts
been in college one week, where is victor vale at
I want to read more books like the secret history & vicious in terms of writing, any recs?????
Same, i did not enjoy Vengeful in the same degree i did Vicious. Marcella and June had great backstories, but their use in the story felt weak. I would have ADORED to see much more Evervale flashbacks and an actual conversation. If they'd imprisioned both at some point and they'd bonded over that once again like in the old times I would have definitely lost my mind. The developement from that would have been insane. And, maybe unpopular opinion, but death trope was such a good option for BOTH Eli and Victor. Just for the symbolism of it. It would have been brilliant.
god, maybe I do need to reread vengeful
I just do not like the marcella and june chapters lol. marcella’s girlbossing and june’s… whatever she does… isn’t as good as the toxic evervale obsession plotline. NOTHING will ever be as compelling as that. it is the foundation of the whole series and there wasn’t enough of it in vengeful!
honestly I think I just need to annotate the book so I can find all the good parts more easily. because there are some lines that make me go insane
what i would give for those 4 sentences victoria said she once wrote about victor and eli
My favorite part of Vengeful was reading about Eli's backstory and more about his mind. I love how complex and multilayered all the Villains duology characters are (and when i mean all, i mean the OGS. I did not like the others tbh). That boy went through hell and back and I sort of felt it then, but never truly imagined it. I absolutely despise Haverty.
i wake up and i think about victor haunting eli as a ghost and then as a phantom every day
V.E Schwab writes such dynamic and complex characters that are so unforgettable. Like they have so much range and spice to them,, they're just *chef's kiss*
I often find myself thinking about the gay little family in Vicious and the nerdy little romantics in Addie Larue and the bisexual Slytherpuffs in Shades of Magic. I wish I could give Kell, Lila, Addie, Henry, Victor, Syd, Mitch, Eli and Rhy a little forehead kiss and protect them.
