Bingo Book Club 📚🎉: If We Were Villains by M.L. Rio
Details
If We Were Villains by M.L. Rio (368 pages)
Genre: Dark Academia, Mystery, Literary Fiction
Summary:
Seven young actors at an elite Shakespearean conservatory live and breathe the Bard—until the lines between performance and reality blur. When one of them turns up dead, the rest are left to untangle the truth from the lies, loyalty from betrayal, and the stage from real life. Told as a confession from prison, this is a story of friendship, ambition, obsession, and the dangerous beauty of art.
