Book Review: These Violent Delights

These Violent Delights
By Chloe Gong
Review by Isabelle

A fantasy Romeo + Juliet retelling set in 1920s Shanghai? Sign me up! This book won me over with its lush prose and its mysterious, magical, violent plot. A second-chance romance between the teenage leaders of two rival gangs, plus an interesting cast of side characters you’ll fall in love with. A must-read for fans of fantasy romance YA with lyrical writing.
