Young adult literature…ah what a genre. It truly owns my heart. Almost all of what I love to read falls under that category, but there are outliers. Those outliers belong here. Read on to find a book with a bit more sophistication and complex content from the adult fiction category.
Oleander
Title: Oleander
Author: Scarlett Drake
Review: 4/10
Synopsis: Caspien Deveraux was poison.
It took me years to realise that he hadn’t been born like that. He’d been cultivated and nurtured by a careful hand and a bitter heart. When I first met him, he was a bud. One primed to bloom beautifully and deadly. One I should have torn out at the root.
I loathed him. I loved him. And until him, I hadn’t known just how completely those two things could exist at once.
