Revenge is a dish best served cold.Edie Kramer has a score to settle with the beautiful people at Blackbriar Academy. Their cruelty drove her to the brink of despair, and four months ago, she couldn’t imagine being strong enough to face her senior year. But thanks to a Faustian compact with the enigmatic Kian, she has the power to make the bullies pay. She’s not supposed to think about Kian once the deal is done, but devastating pain burns behind his unearthly beauty, and he’s impossible to forget. In one short summer, her entire life changes and she sweeps through Blackbriar, prepped to take the beautiful people down from the inside. A whisper here, a look there, and suddenly . . . bad things are happening. It’s a head rush, seeing her tormentors get what they deserve, but things that seem too good to be true usually are, and soon, the pranks and payback turns from delicious to deadly. Edie is alone in a world teeming with secrets and fiends lurking in the shadows. In this murky morass of devil’s bargains, she isn’t sure who—or what—she can trust. Not even her own mind.

Auf der Rückseite ist Aguirres „Razorland“-Trilogie abgebildet. Ich erinnerte mich, dass ich vor langer Zeit...
I really liked Enclave and I hoped this series would be just as good. Even though the story could have been great, since it had all the necessary elements, something just didn't connect for me. In the end, I was left with this feeling:-Edie might have been very smart, but it didn't come through. I...
So much could've been done with this book, but I was disappointed. She is a genius, but makes the dumbest decisions. The book was unbelievable. I will not read the sequel.
In the beginning of this book, Edie is on a bridge, preparing to commit suicide. Kian stops her with an intriguing offer - three favors now in return for three favors later. She has the opportunity to ask for three things within 5 years and then the company will ask for three things in return. She i...
I felt like I was cheated with this book. Opening is completely different to what the actual book is.This book is a triple threat. Threat of having no plot. Threat of being a disaster in narration and language and Threat in being a book without strong characters. I could have coped with this book, h...
