That being said, I couldn’t help but enjoy Elle and her very tight-knit group of girls. They are all snobby, spoiled girls and boys with terrible, mean attitudes. The characters were not very likable, but they were written well. At times this left me confused, but I did like real it made the story feel. It felt, at times, like how an actual person thinks, where one thought stops partway and another idea comes in. The thoughts would stop and start, as would the conversations. The struggle came from the disjointed feel of the writing. Other times, I loved it and thought it was amazing. At times, I felt confused and would have to go back and re-read portions so that I could catch what was happening. The writing was different and it was something I had a love-hate relationship with. I enjoyed seeing the story unfold in this way. It is a Macbeth retelling, and I found the similarities and the detours from the original story to be interesting. I loved the plot and the idea of self-inflicted revenge against an attacker. Foul is Fair was this gritty and mean revenge story that was both shocking and thrilling for me to read.
