The crush of students flowing out of the school buoyed me along in a tide of bodies. Between gaps in the crowd, I caught glimpses of the word smeared across the car's windshield in bloodred relief.

[...] The letters looked nearly dry, and I couldn't fight the morbid impulse to touch them. A distinct tackiness remained. Was it corn syrup or actual blood ? I didn't care to investigate further.
There was no proof that the infamous secret organization made up of Heller High's elite even existed, but this exhibition had all the making of a Red Court takedown.

J'ai bien aimé ma lecture. L'histoire n'était certes pas très originale, mais j'ai beaucoup aimé suivre l'avancée, voir comment Ember se débattait entre l'envie de détruire le Red Court et aimer ce qu'elle fait, et également se poser les questions pour savoir qui était la Queen of Heart.
Bien sûr, c'était assez donné, tout du moins j'avais des doutes et je me disais "je suis sûre que ..." et c'était ça. Mais ça n'a rien gâché à ma lecture, et c'était juste un bon moment passé !

Résumé
Anyone can ask the Red Court for a favor...but every request comes at a cost. And once the deed is done, you're forever in their debt.
Whenever something scandalous happens at Heller High, the Red Court is the name on everyone's lips. Its members--the most elite female students in the school--deal out social ruin and favors in equal measure, their true identities a secret known only to their ruthless leader: the Queen of Hearts.
Sixteen-year-old Ember Williams has seen firsthand the damage the Red Court can do. Two years ago, they caused the accident that left her older sister paralyzed. Now, Ember is determined to hold them accountable...by taking the Red Court down from the inside.
But crossing enemy lines will mean crossing moral boundaries, too--ones Ember may never be able to come back from. She always knew taking on the Red Court would come at a price, but will the cost of revenge be more than she's willing to sacrifice? (Source Goodreads.com)
