Resumen del Editor

“Love is savage, love is blind, love is something they may not find …”

Once upon a time, there was a young girl who lived in a battered trailer, a girl from the wrong side of the tracks.

One day, she fell down The Elite Kings’ rabbit hole. Sucked into a dark vortex of lies, hate, and deceit, and spat out by money, glitz, and power.

There were things this little girl didn’t know, things she was about to find out and secrets that have been kept from her. Those secrets were guarded by the boys that were about to smash her world open and tear it all apart....

He may be a Malum, but she is a Stuprum, born into this world but neglected by the choice of her mother. Her eyes may not glisten with stars, but they roar with fire, and when she finally reaches her peak, it’s that same fire that will burn. Them. All. Down.

My name is Tillie Stuprum, and my story is not like the rest.

Everything she thought she knew is a fabricated version of the truth. I’m Nate Riverside-Malum, the one your girl whispers about to her friends and whose initials are scratched down your back. Her story is not like the rest of them, because her story is dead.

wow. perfection

I am in LOVE. I listened to this book ALL DAY LONG. I went to the store to buy an audibke gift card just to get the next one in the series because that cliffhanger GUTTED ME. AWESOME BOOK! I LOVE TILLY AND MY NATE

So dark and twisty

This is the book that will gut you. Amo goes darker than I ever thought she would and this book takes so many twists you will find yourself binging the whole series because you need to know what happens.

I'm crying, I'm anxious, IDK what to think!

Tillie and Nate honestly killed me. I somehow forgot how much I love the Elite Kings, they are freaking crazy, but will fight anyone for those they love. I didn't think I could love Tillie as much as I love Maddison but I was definitely proven wrong. Tillie is so strong and is unbelievably resilient to everything that has happened to her throughout her life. And Nate, well, if you've read the first three books in this series there's no sunshine and rainbows with the Elite Kings. Nate has always been one of my absolute favorites. He’s such a charmer who is also a complete asshole. See, my perfect book boyfriend.

Overall, I LOVED every second of this book. It was exciting, a page turner and really easy to read. It let me get lost into a world I know and love, and I can't wait to start on part two!

⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐

Holy. Crap.

How?! That last cliffhanger. What? It crossed my mind a few times but I dismissed it but holy actual crap. This book broke my heart because of the other heart shattering event that had me in tears but that cliffhanger was a shocker.

Ripped

My review for Malum: Part I. What can I say about Amo's Malum: Part 1 that will do this book justice. This book ripped me open and sled me. I cried at one point in the book because it was so heart wrenching, I didn't want to read anymore but I push through to the end. I am on the edge of my seat about what will happen next with Nate, Tillie, Madison, and the Kings. Why Amo why did it have to end this way? This is so different from the other three Elite Kings books before Malum and I loved it all and I can't wait for part II of Malum to see what happens with Nate and Tillie. Will she survive or will she die at the hands of Nate and the Kings and their world of fuckery. I wish I could give Amo and this book more than five stars. Amo our queen did the damn thing is this book.

BLOWN

I have become ABSOLUTELY OBSESSED with this series. Pleeeeaaase keep listening or reading. You won’t be disappointed. Great author.

The chokehold this series has on me is insane!

Spice: 3.5/5

It has been over a week now since I finished this book and I'm still not sure I'm in the right headspace about it to get all of my thoughts out and into a review lol. 😅 This is one of those series that sucks you in and holds you hostage. No matter what you do you keep coming back to it over and over until you get to the end. No matter how much it hurts. No matter how scrambled it makes your brain. You have to have the answers so it must be finished. Yet with each book as questions are answered more arise. I have a better idea about what is going on with this secret society now than I did with the first three books. I still feel like I have no clue what is going on haha but it's slowly coming together piece by piece. I'm just taking it one book at a time hoping it will all click into place in the end.

So this book focuses more on Nate and Tillie. Let me tell you I was constantly being kicked in the gut in the other books by Bishop so I thought nothing could hurt worse than that. HAH! Let me introduce you to Nate when he's in love. 😩 Whew - this guy stabbed me straight in the chest several times and he absolutely did not give a flying crap about doing so. The things he and Tillie go through for most of the book had so much angst that I was nearly physically ill haha. 😂 It is wild! But then Nate has these moments that just melt your heart and what do I do? Completely forget about all of the horrible crap he's done until the next time he does something awful... you honestly can't help yourself lol that's just his personality working its magic.

As for Tillie, I am loving the role she wound up having in their lives even if she is against claiming it. She went from being an outsider who had a ticket in with her best friend to someone that could hold so much power that the Kings would do anything to stop her from reaching out and taking it. So much so that it has me wondering if there is a line that they won't cross to make sure she doesn't, even if it breaks one of their own in the process... 👀

There was a moment in this story that seriously gutted me though. I had to put it down for a few days because I was scared to pick it back up and find out what happened next. My heart needed time to process it. Then I dived back in and the plot twist of an ending I got hit with had my head spinning! I mean... What. A. Cliffhanger!!! 🤯🤯

I must read the next book. I will definitely read the next book. But lord have mercy I need time to recover from everything that is well, Nate and the bomb that went off in the last like 20ish pages. So once again The Elite Kings have gotten me all messed up in the head over their story lol. But it is so good I refuse to stop. At this rate, it may take me another year or two before I finish it hahaha but it will happen! 😆

This is not a book or series that the TW can be skipped over trust me. So check that and check it well before starting.

F*CKING MASTERFUL!

I am in awe! This was a frikkin masterpiece! By far my favorite even though it eviscerated me and I cried for so much of it 😭 I absolutely can NOT believe she ended the book on THAT one word! I don't know what I would do if I couldn't immediately go into part 2! Never sleep again?! I have hope and that is so very dangerous here. I know that, but I have it anyways. God I hope I don't regret it

Mikaela 🥺

re listening to this book, ohh man i cried more than the first time.. soo sad 😔

Devilish and Delicious

Book 4 continues the story regarding the Kings, Swans, the island and all the secrets. This book focuses on Tillie and what her role is in all this secret society mystery. She finds a book Damon left behind and she’s slowly unraveling what he was drawing. There is tragedy but I have a feeling that it’s not what it seems. The ending leaves us with another surprise and I can’t wait to start the next book to find out what happened.
