3 mixes for this book

A dark, shifting playlist for the ambition, resurrection, and moral uncertainty at the heart of V. E. Schwab’s Vicious world. The instrumentals move between eerie restraint and forceful momentum, while the vocal tracks evoke characters caught between power, vengeance, and the uneasy question of what makes someone a hero—or a villain.
