I have a lot of thoughts on this book and I really can't think of how to put them all out on paper. I kind of feel like thats what happened to the author. She had too much going on and she forgot to explain things. The writing jumped around so much. I was so confused the whole book and even now that I have finished it I'm still confused. I have absolutely no clue what happened in this book. I know that there is a girl who is supposedly is shy but then she meets 2 guys and becomes a social butterfly and she's kind of mean... she wants to fight everyone. Idk. I came from reading the Academy books and Sang was shy and she remained shy and slowly opened up to the guys. But Seph automatically opened up to everyone. She was telling secrets to people she just met. I hated that the guys were man whores. I hated that Seph just laughed about it. I hated that everything was so secretive. I just really didn't like the book. But heres the thing... i need to know who the stalker is.

Yet another series that I've found that has succeeded in keeping me from reading my library books. Holy. Cow. This series is amazing. Like, I neeeeeed to have all of the books in my possession right now. It's by no means perfect, there is a lot of transitions that are kind of jumpy bumpy, and I've felt like I've missed something, and then there are a few plot holes as well, but the good things far out weigh the bad.

It reminds me a lot of a mix between the Curse of the Gods Series, and The Academy (both of which I adore, so it's not that big of a surprise that I like this one)

At times the story was a little confusing, and felt like it was missing points, but overall, it was a great read. I can't wait to read the rest of her books!

  • Diverse cast of characters? N/A
  • Flaws of characters a main focus? It's complicated

This was pretty confusing, and it just didn’t flow like I hoped.

Part vampire diaries, part Twilight, and part Anita Blake - it was mostly a fun read. The MC was rather dense but considering the models the author used, it was anticipated. The guys were gorgeous - also expected. And the trouble was rather vague for the most part. The impending orgy was a bit of a surprise - mostly because it was written more to be a YA novel.

This was nearly five stars, but you think they would've given into some aspect of the relationship if that's what the main point of this is. There's literally only two kissing scenes. Otherwise, it's a pretty good book.
