The girl in the blade stares back with murder in her eyes. I love her.

Rating: 5 stars!

I accidentally read this whole book in one go after starting it in a queue when I was stuck without a book. My full review is available here from 09/12/19.

Thanks to Hannah Capin, Netgalley and Penguin Random House for my arc of this book.

I loved this book. If you like dark, dark books where you have to set your morality aside at the door, then you'll love Foul is Fair and you'll love Jade and her coven. These girls are out for revenge, and they'll do anything to get it. The timescale seems a little far-fetched, it only takes something like two weeks for Jade to infiltrate, manipulate and destroy these boys, but honestly that's pretty in-keeping with the ridiculous time-scale in Macbeth so I'm fine with it. I love Macbeth and this book is Macbeth rewritten with female power in mind.

All of the characters in this book are inhuman, witches and monsters and killers, and maybe that's why it's so easy to suspend your morals and enjoy this tale of revenge. I wanted Jade to get her revenge, and if she'd roped me into this, I'd be right there with her. It's over the top, but it's meant to be, violent and gruesome and downright evil, and it still manages to be funny in places and empowering too as Jade re-invents herself from victim to killer.

This book was a wild, fucked up read, and I hope there's more from Hannah Capin coming. I'll be adding Dead Queen's Club to my to buy list as soon as I can find a UK link to it.
