2023: She’ll be his favourite, and his downfall…
The Favourite
What you need to know before your trail
Jessica Mooney seems like any other student at her university. She’s talented, driven, and looks set to be this year’s ‘favourite’ in charismatic Professor Crane’s Law and Literature class. But unlike the other students competing for his good opinion, Jessica isn’t what she seems. She’s carrying a dark secret.
Her sister is dead. Crane’s to blame. And she’s the only one who can bring him to justice.
Will Jessica be able to get the answers and justice she seeks, or will her search for revenge destroy her first?

Travel Guide
Philadelphia
The locations are fictional – the university etc as when you realise what goes on here, they have to be! The author studied in Philly so you have to assume only the rough outline of what it is like to be at university applies to the story. At least you hope it is!
Rittenhouse Square sounds particularly nice to visit. All in all, locations are pretty vague. The real setting is DARK ACADEMIA.
Booktrailer Review
ooh this was a disturbing read. One girl joins a uni course with the sole aim of getting at the professor who she blames for hurting her sister. We’re not sure how at the start, but then it all comes out.
She gets more and more obsessed with him and then, well…..
It’s disturbing on more than one level. Whilst I understand the girl’s anger, is she justified in doing what she does? What happens to the professor? What did happen to the sister?
On a lighter note, I really enjoyed the discussions in the fictional Lit and Law class. Learned a lot about Greek myths!
