I got 4 hours of sleep last night thanks to this book. I am going to be grumpy today at work because I spent the night reading about rich teens with issues. This book was insane! So much so I had to skim through some parts because the scenes were a bit much.
The ending wrapped up everything into a small bundle of madness. I don't think I'll read the next book.

I don't know what it is about family vacations..but I was really into bully romances. I'm sure there is no correlation between the two.
Shunned was an okay RH book. Not particularly my favorite but it was interesting. I did enjoy the whole mystery behind everything but I thought the ending was pretty easy to figure out. That being said, it doesn't mean that I will never dive into book two. Mostly because I already have it lined up on my damn kindle (this book addiction kills me sometimes). It does mean, though, that I'm just not 100% invested now. I'm hoping that the next book will be a bit less predictable but one never knows until diving into that book. Which again, kills me but I am willing to do it whenever I have the time.
I don't really want to go into detail about who you meet or what really happens - just know that it will give you some mystery with a bunch of twists and turns. The ending was a good cliffhanger, even though I saw it coming a mile away, but I'm intrigued enough to see what the heck is going to happen to this group in the next one. Will she go through what Loretta (oh lord, I hope that's her name - read so many books this week lol) went through? Who knows - but I need to know.
Overall, I'm going into book two. Wish me luck.

It’s book was iffy in the first 20-30% but it picked up and I was sucked into the story l. I still didn’t see the ending coming! I can’t wait to start the next one to figure it out
Still deciding on whether it’s a 3 or 4 so it’s a 3.5 stars for now.
A first for me, RH is not a genre I go for so I can’t compare it to her other series or to similar style books like a few of the other reviews seem to mention.
I also must have missed the paranormal part in the synopsis so that made the ending more surprising.
It’s an easy read, a little tame considering the description and full of mystery. I definitely wasn’t expecting that ending either. Unlike the last book I read, this ending peaked my interest enough that I may just give the second book a go when it’s released.
The Author’s note made it that little special for me. Being a victim of bullying herself she created a character who stood up to her bullies just how she wish she could have. I’m not a fan of bullying books personally but I can see the value. It still doesn’t sit well the whole romancing of bullying love interests but they can be entertaining at times (especially when strong female lead characters can hold their ground) and ever since my Pen Douglas book binge (which I adored btw despite the bullying) I continue to keep getting these recommendations.

Holy crap holy crap holy crap I DID NOT SEE THAT COMING!!! Book one of this paranormal RH series. HOLY CRAP!!!!!
Our main character, Hazel, is an orphan after losing her mother and best friend in a house fire. She receives a scholarship opportunity to attend a very prestigious preparatory academy for her senior year. Having nothing and no one, she accepts the free ride. She’s hated instantly. Bullied. There are triggers present. But she can tell that somethings not right with the academy, that something sinister is going on and she knows it revolves around the scholarship students. AND YOU WILL NEVER SEE IT COMING. Holy crappp that cliffhanger.
Yall. This author can HOOK you immediately. I’m in awe at the brilliance of this plot so far. Completely different from all other bully academy romances. SO SO good and I’m praying the next books are just as good. Can’t wait to find out where this goes. One more time, HOLY CRAP!! Off to the next one I go!!

This book was incredible. I loved the characters and story building. Although I did guess the ending, it was incredibly well done and I can’t wait for the next one.

You think you're reading your typical teen romance, then the twist comes. Wow.
