The Review 📚 All of Us Villains
✨ The Title/Cover Draw:
- I had been hearing a lot of early buzz about this book. They describe it like Hunger Games but with magic. Thanks to @netgalley and Tor Teen for allowing me to read this ahead of publication.
💜 What I liked:
- The way the characters use magic is different than I had seen before. Just like with similar books in this trope, you wonder how more than one of them comes out of it alive. It keeps you guessing for sure! And I did not know this was a series, but I really need to read the rest…like now.
😱 What I didn’t like:
- This book was very slow for me to start. I considered DNF’ing it about 30% in, but then it really picks up.
🚦 My face at the end: 😺
💭 5 Reasons to Read:
- 1. Magic
- 2. Fighting to the death
- 3. Subterfuge
- 4. Mysterious Curse
- 5. Characters to root for
🕧 Mini-Summary:
- The Blood Moon has risen and it’s time for the champions of the 7 families to enter the tournament in a battle for their right to magic.
I voluntarily read and reviewed an advanced copy of this book. All thoughts and opinions are my own. Received from Netgalley.
📘 Summary 📚 All of Us Villains
The Blood Moon rises. The Blood Veil falls. The Tournament begins.
Every generation, at the coming of the Blood Moon, seven families in the remote city of Ilvernath each name a champion to compete in a tournament to the death.
The prize? Exclusive control over a secret wellspring of high magick, the most powerful resource in the world–one thought long depleted.
This year, thanks to a salacious tell-all book, the seven champions are thrust into worldwide spotlight, granting each of them new information, new means to win, and most importantly: a choice – accept their fate or rewrite their story.
But this is a story that must be penned in blood.
