Summary:
You know how the story goes: a young woman in a horrible situation wakes up one day to find herself in a new world—complete with a new face! Usually, this second chance at life is a dream come true.
Not for Penelope. She’s the unwanted Daughter of a Duke, and having just finished playing this game (The Duke’s Super Love Project), she knows just how lethal her future can get. Somehow, she’ll have to find a way to escape this horrible situation. At least she has some insight on what events to avoid.
Review:
Eee! I’ve been waiting MONTHS for the next volume of Villains Are Destined to Die. (In reality, I think it was a month and a half – tops). Villains Are Destined to Die Vol. 5 is everything I hoped it would be, and I’m thrilled to dive back into this series.
The last volume ended in a major cliffhanger, so naturally, this volume picks up right in the thick of things. This whole assassination/setup arc made me love certain characters all the more…while wishing I could smack others.
This arc stems from some very satisfying moments, including characters saying/hearing things they deserve. It was refreshing, to say the least. Combining this with the brilliant artwork, I fell in love with this series.
Ironically, I think this volume solidified my ship for the series, and it’s not who I would have predicted. Not in a million years. But now it’s all I want for Penelope’s endgame. Fingers crossed!
I’m happy to report that in addition to getting my greedy little hands on Villains Are Destined to Die Vol. 5; I landed the sixth volume too! So I’m going to go read that right away.
