“Told with Blake’s signature wit and driven by a cast of morally gray characters you will hate to love and love to hate, Gifted & Talented is equal parts black comedy, sharp indictment of privilege and power, and soaring, vicious drama. Addictively entertaining, this is Blake at the height of her abilities.”—Ava Reid, #1 New York Times bestselling author of Lady Macbeth

“Incisive, unsparing, and utterly brilliant. Gifted & Talented is a remarkable character study meditating on the consequences of dynasty and power. Olivie Blake’s storytelling has risen to empyrean heights.” —Chloe Gong, New York Times bestselling author of Immortal Longings

“Take the love-to-hate-’em siblings of Succession, add a dash of The Magicians‘ real-world magic, and put it together with Olivie Blake’s stellar sense of humor, and you have Gifted & Talented, a refreshing tale of spoiled-sibling woe, mysterious curses, and family complexity that will absolutely delight you.”—Veronica Roth, #1 New York Times bestselling author of When Among Crows

“Olivie Blake’s singular narrative voice sparkles in Gifted & Talented—a timely tale of greed, ambition, and rivalry which eviscerates the world of wealth and privilege in nimble and terrific style.”—M. L. Rio, bestselling author of If We Were Villians

“Gifted & Talented is a wickedly funny book about perfectly horrible people—and some of them even get what they deserve. Blake’s sly prose and vivid character work bring the dreadful siblings to life, but also give us moments of heart-clenching tenderness. A delight.”—Emily Tesh, Hugo Award-winning author of Some Desperate Glory
