I really loved this when I read it. It's pretty dark but apparently I really love stories about sports school settings and this was no exception. I'm really glad I read this series but there are a ton of trigger warnings for this series. I can't remember them all right now but be cautious if this is something you want to read but you have some triggers.

I felt this book was not the first book of a series, but the introduction to it.
--> The characters are really intriguing. All of them messed up (ones more than others - or not..). Everyone seems to have a backstory - even the grown-ups or the "softer characters" - that's really interestingal! I hope we'll get through all of them.
--> Sometimes, it was hard to read bc it got a tiny bit confusing. But I guess that's normal as she left us with more questions than answers. Nevertheless, it was a quick reading (seeing I got through it without even having that much time to read).
--> I'm still deciding if this series will be for me. However, I've got a feeling that the next book will answer that for me.
