Never Saw Me Coming by Vera Kurian, 389 pages

When Chloe enters college, she wants to get an education, yes, but she also has very specific plans to kill Will Bachman, a friend from childhood who horribly mistreated her. She's also one of seven anonymous diagnosed psychopaths in a peculiar study at her university, which becomes problematic when others in the study begin dying off in a series of brutal murders. Now Chloe must figure out who's trying to kill her without it interfering with her own plans of murder.

There's something very "Spy vs. Spy" about this book, which keeps you on your toes the whole time. I loved how Kurian turned the psychopathic thriller trope on its head by making the psychos the victims, which also served to humanize and explain them better than most thrillers. A fantastic edge-of-your-seat book.
