I enjoyed this audiobook enough that I started it the day before HOFAS release and finished it on release day.

It was ok. I felt like it could've been better, but I guess the rest of the series might be good. The story just felt like it was missing something.

An amazing, entertaining read. Poor Alex... But her silver-lining is her destiny for greater things. And Like the yee old saying goes, with great power comes with great responsibility.

Like Daimon, I just didn’t like the dialogue. Honestly some of the things the characters were saying were so cringey that it pulled me out of the book.
I also just didn’t like the amount of attempted sexual assaults. It wasn’t happening often but I think one time is pushing it so it just made be uncomfortable. The bits of misogyny weren’t helping either. These were all things that the FMC had to deal with and I didn’t like the story or characters enough to continue through that.

Overall okay book. Like able characters and nice conflict, however, the plot was just wayyyyy too predictable and the book was too much of a rip off of vampire academy for me to get into. The writing style is super easy to fall into, however I had a big issue with the world building-or lack thereof(especially the history of the world). Love this author... Didn't care for this book very much. I probably will read the rest of the series to see what happens but it's pretty low on my tbr pile! I probably wouldn't recommend this book to others... I would send them to the VA series!!

First of this book reminded me A LOT of Vampire Academy. There are a lot of similarities to the characters as well the story itself. But since I loved the Vampire Academy Books I didn't mind it so much as long to will not stay that way in the rest of the books.
It is very nicely balanced with action, romance, surprise and heartbreak.
The characters are just beautiful.
I love Alex, she is smart most of the time, strong and very snarky, and I loved her snarky humor. Aiden, well how can someone not like Aiden? I hope we get to see a bit funnier site of him.
I knew from the second she met Seth what it meant and what it would be. I loved Seth and I can’t wait to see more of him and learn more about.
Overall 4 Stars from me, the only reason I gave it a 4 stars and not 5 was because it was very similar to the Vampire Academy, almost too similar. But I’m looking forward to the second book and can’t wait to see what happens next.
Favorite Quotes:
“You need to know about love. The things people will do for love. All truths come down to love, do they not? One way or another, they do. See, there is a difference between love and need. Sometimes, what you feel is immediate and without rhyme or reason. Two people see each across a room or their skin brushes. Their souls recognize the person as their own. It doesn't need time to figure it. The soul always knows… whether it’s right or wrong.”
