I recently discovered Penelope Douglas and her Devil's Night series. It's fucked up and dark and it left me wanting for more. I had thought that this could do it. This book could compete. There were warnings. Warnings in the reviews, warnings by the author. Penelope never had dark and dangerous warnings. I was thrilled and felt a bit dirty digging in.

Sadly didn't compare. Is it fucked up?? Sure. But it's watered down. It doesn't have the darkness we were warned about. I've read more emotionally conflicting scenes in rom-coms. This book as the vibe of Cruel Intentions mixed with the Skulls.

I'm not mad at it. It has a lot of good plots. I'm going to finish the series, already pre-ordered the third. It just didn't hit the spot. However the "warning" on the next book claims it's more intense and fucked up, so we shall see.
