Really, if all things that is what happens at the end. I guess. I'm not sure if I will read the remainder of this series!

OMG, endlich vorbei! Was für eine Qual!
(Und nein, das ist nicht der Ort um raus zufinden WTF mit mir verkehrt ist, mir dieses Hörbuch bis zum Ende anzutun 😬)

Review Kurzfassung:
Das waren die längsten 18h 40min meines Lebens, trotz Wiedergabegeschwindigkeit von 1,95x...

Review, noch kürzer:
🤦‍♀️🤦‍♀️🤦‍♀️

Review, etwas länger (= formlose Gedanken, während des Lesens - ich habe schon genug Lebenszeit mit diesem Buch verschwendet):

30% .... Bis jetzt:
- Alaska-Twilight-Vibes (I like)
- Ständige Anspielungen und Bemerkungen, die jemand mit mehr Beobachtungsgabe schon längst, viel mehr hinterfragt hätte
- krass traumatisierten Girl, die ihr Trauma vergisst, sobald sie den Bad Boy mit den Obsidian Augen trifft. What kind of fuckery is this?

40% ... Sie möchte Twilight lesen, um zu sehen ob der Hype gerechtfertigt ist?
🤣🤣😃 Girl... don't bother🤣

66% ... So boring 🥱😴💤
Jaxon und Grace haben NULL Chemie. Grace sucht sofort Entschuldigungen und Ausreden, warum Jaxon (beinahe) jemanden tötet, bevor sie überhaupt die Hintergründe erfährt... Toxic...
Definitv Kategorie: wäre es kein Hörbuch, hätte ich es schon längst abgebrochen

79% ... I'm so bored and annoyed... 🙄🙄

85% ... langweiligster Showdown ever (bin eingeschlafen, ohne Witz)

89% ... Dieses Buch deckt nur einen Zeitraum von maximal 1 Monat ab...
Es macht einfach null Sinn wie die Menschen sich verhalten in diesem Buch...🤦‍♀️
Meine Augen bleiben bald stecken, vom Verdrehen 🙄🙄🙄

90% ... Und was ist das überhaupt für eine Schule? Und der Direktor? Die Schüler bringen sich gegenseitig (fast) um und er schimpft sie nur ein bisschen aus? Wie ein Kind, das sein Zimmer nicht aufgeräumt hat
Und warum trinkt Jaxon dauernd von ihr? I mean, geht's noch??? Wtf?

Spoiler (Ende): <Spoiler>das Grace ein Gargoyle ist, fand ich schon cool, da das mal ein Wesen ist, das eher selten in Fantasy vorkommt...</Spoiler>


Würde gerne Minus-Sterne vergeben...

Wow this book was a total surprise to me. I have seen it many times but the ratings where very mixed so I was not going to pick it up. But a friend I trust told me I would like it and I should read it, so I did.   





And yes, I did like it .. a lot. A lot more than I thought, even though there were some elements that I normally do not like.  





Did it remind me of Twilight? Yes, a little but it also had enough of its own to be pretty different from Twilight. Also thought it was better than Twilight.  





Everyone who knows me or my taste in books, knows I’m not a insta-love fan so we had that, a little bit of a love triangle – but not really (if you read the book, it makes sense lol) , also angsty teens. All those things are normally things I shy away from we had in this book but I can’t say I hated it. Actually, quieted enjoyed it.  





I lLOVED the writing; I loved the suspense and it kept me engaged and guessing to the end.  .. Some things were pretty predictable but we also had some pretty big twists and turns.   





The end!!!! OMG!!! I had so many guesses but that was not even on the list of things I thought of …. We get a lot of actions throughout. I can’t wait to learn more about the races and their lore... So far, I enjoyed the way the vampires, wolves and dragons are in this series. I love to see more of all of them but most of all the witches.  





After that ending I also have so many much more questions and can't wait to find out more.  





The one thing that bothered me a bit was her “family” it seemed like they only there to give her a reason to be at the school. Her Uncle was not very engaged for being her guardian unless she was injured. It just seemed a bit odd, and sometimes made no sense considering the things that are happening to her around her. But I hope that will be resolved next book.  





Over all I enjoyed it but I don’t think I can give it higher than 3.5,  just because there are the elements I dislike and the family thing. But the last 150 some pages were insane and the shocking cliffhanger made sure I will read book two. And most likely pretty soon. 





So, this will sit at a 3.5 ★, But I have a feeling book two will be even higher.

This book is too long for no reason. Almost 600 pages for what?

This is like the slightly more feminist, new and improved Twilight. But I also didn't find myself anywhere near as engaged as I did with Twilight (maybe because I'm no longer a tween, but whatever). The writing is pretty horrendous especially in the beginning (like talk about insta-love..) but it's a fun book to turn your brain off to
