As she recounted all of this, Briony watched Innes’s expression, hoping for respect, or at least understanding. But her face didn’t change at all. The ending was unexpected, and a bit of a gut punch if I'm honest - but that's all I'll say on the matter (no spoilers here!) YA giant Clare makes her adult debut with a whirlwind epic fantasy featuring secret plots, ancient magic, and hidden identities. The whole tournament literally had me on the edge of my seat. The plot barrelled along at the perfect pace, having plenty to keep you going but a lot to keep you guessing and rolling with the twists and turns. I loved it all! It took the reader to places I don’t think any of us were expecting but it was done masterfully. The incredible conclusion to the tournament that started in the category bestselling novel All of Us Villains.Gavin had once agonized over whether the real Alistair Lowe was more boy or monster, but now he understood that Alistair was both. And even though neither canceled the other out, he didn’t think that made Alistair beyond redemption.” Amanda Foody and C. L. Herman team up for All of Us Villains, a YA fantasy duology, perfect for fans of The Hunger Games. Once again this story doesn’t pull any punches, delivering the hardest one of all at an unexpected moment and the ending was delivered beautifully, painfully and perfectly in tune with the series. My only complaint is that at times, some of the elements feel a bit repetitive. Honestly, I think that’s partly because the book is a little on the long side. Combining some of the events might have helped to cut down on some of the repetition. The writing is truly beautiful, with deeply captivating and absolutely spell-binding descriptions. I was immersed in a lush portrayal of a harsh and pretty macabre world filled with spells and curses imbued crystals, ancient magical objects, dark alleys, spell shops, and aged stoned walls of magic-filled champions´ shelters. One thing is certain, this author duo knows how to build an atmosphere and pull you in.

ALL OF OUR DEMISE | Kirkus Reviews

A fantastic, unique magic system with multidimensional characters. The lines between "right and wrong" have been blurred for so long that there is no distinction in the eyes of many, merely shades of gray. Do these young adults have any chance against those odds? I don’t think I’d be the only one saying so I wish (and hope) there are more books set within this world to come. This book series worked perfectly as a duology but I think there is so much more potential for more to be set within this world as it’s just a fantastically created book-verse. More please!During the first book, I had a feeling that a certain character may harbor a secret crush (so secret that he doesn't know it yet) on another one but I still thought that the authors will go down the quite obvious route that had been laid out in book one. While this change may upset many readers who favored a certain ship, it made me happy. One thing that these two authors can apparently do excellently is to make you change your perspective and feel happy even though you initially rooted for the pairing as well and could not imagine them not ending up together. Due to my prior hunch, I started thinking that there is no way I am imagining and reading too much into this pretty early on (in the first quarter or so) and it delighted me that I was right. I enjoyed the scenes with them so much! All that tension! It´s the enemies to lovers I didn´t know I needed so much. Their interactions full of snarky remarks stole the show for me. They ensnared me. As I held my breath - my heart aching - I prayed for a happy ending for them. Those whose lives are on the line mean nothing to others. I couldn't help but feel for each of the main characters in some way. Not everyone lives to the end of All of Our Demise, but no one depends on a death to be redeemed; they earn their forgiveness through what they do while living, not in how they die. That’s how it should be; redemption-through-death is overdone and a bit lazy at this point.

Magical, clever and cutthroat, All of Us Villains sets out to make it impossible to know who to root for…. A fun, twisty ride through a world full of spells and family secrets’ Kendare Blake, #1 New York Times bestselling author of the Three Dark Crowns series Even if nothing of it could be real, I still felt all the pain the characters felt, I even cried because it’s impossible not to with a book like this.The Hunger Games by Suzanne Collins is another teenage death tournament, but it differs from All of Us Villains by focusing more on wider societal ills than personal trauma and is a dystopia rather than a fantasy. The only small complaint I have is that some of the trials can feel a little repetitive. I appreciate that Foody and Herman did their best to make each one distinct, but there’s no getting around the fact that there are seven of them. I like the way that they fit in with the family histories and the ingenuity deployed to solve them all, but I won’t pretend that I wasn’t a little disappointed when I got to a trial chapter because on the whole I found them less exciting and dynamic than the others.
