Deceit by Katelyn Taylor

dark medium-paced
  • Plot- or character-driven? A mix
  • Strong character development? It's complicated
  • Loveable characters? Yes
  • Flaws of characters a main focus? It's complicated

4.5

⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️💫

This was a fun deep dive into a dark academia world with cult-ish secret society fuckery around every corner. I would definitely recommend the audiobook. You know I LOVE me a full cast, duet narration. 🔥

At Gallows Hill, men rule the world and everyone is up to no good. Poor Skyla really didn’t stand a chance. Her sheltered life left her clueless to what she was walking into. I’m excited to see how she grows throughout  everything that’s thrown her way. 

Much like many other reviews, I loved that each of her men bring something to the table and have their own personalities. I love them each for different reasons and it’s what makes “why choose” so much fun! 

Though I’d say the book itself is medium paced, the relationships are very much INSTAAAAlove - which had me rolling my eyes HARD at many points throughout the book. But overall, I was still able to enjoy this story but it stopped it from being a five star for me. 

I won’t even say anything about the ending because I don’t believe it for a second. Just, no. But anyway, I’m off to download the next book and dive on in!
