My face is red from slapping it every time something unexpected happened :)

(re-read) okay so I finally got to fully appreciate this book and its brilliance with that re-read, but I will say that the pacing felt a bit uneven towards the middle, I didn't feel as invested as I did at the beginning, which may explain why I had felt the first time around that I didn't know what was happening anymore. but all in all great story, great characters, and I can't wait to finally read books 2 and 3!!

I got no words. Okay I have a few words. Holy shit. Amazing. Wow. I don't want to wait for the second book. Sel omigod. Bree. Nick. The way I have crushes on those three. Ughh. Sorry it was just so amazing. I'm not good at writing reviews. Can you tell I'm not good at writing reviews?

a wonderful yet double edged sword *pun* modern twist of Arthurian lore 
after her mothers death, 16 year old bree matthews wants nothing to do with her family and the childhood home she use to love
taking up residency at UNC, bree witnesses a flying demon feeding on human energy and the legendborn students (descendants of king arthurs knights) tasked with hunting demons down
when a mage/ merlin student fails to wipe brees memory, it instead unlocks her magic potential and a forgotten memory before her mothers death, driving her into an underground world of magic, knights and the mystery of Excalibur
  dark, magical and filled with grief, this is an amazing fantasy of finding yourself and your purpose
