This installment of the Zodiac Academy series has a lot going for it. Solaria is an effed up and problematic world, but I really really love it. I think the authors have done such a great job with the world building as well as developing the magic system. And the character development is pretty amazing, too. I started out the series really hating many characters but now I adore them and I'm not entirely sure how that happened. They're complex and flawed and loveable all at the same time. I think the series is worth reading just for the character arcs.

I thoroughly enjoyed this book until I got to the last fifty pages, and now I'm pissed off and part of me doesn't even want to continue the series. However, I am going to continue with the series because I'm addicted and I can't help myself. But I am so not happy about it. I have never been so angry at a book before. They really didn't have to go there, but they just have to keep pushing the damn limits. Are these authors sadists or what??

This series is starting to really piss me off. It's still amazing but nothing good happens ever and it's getting so hard to read. Can there just be some happiness...please.

I need to take a break and read a standalone or something because I'm too invested in these characters.

After taking a break by reading a couple standalones to mend my broken heart, I confirm I'm still obsessed and in love with this series, I just hate reading about the characters I adore being in so much pain 😭

Pain. So much pain.
It’s a wonderful book.
There’s funny parts, cute parts and sexy parts.
It also caused lots of tears.

UGH the cliffhanger !!!!

thoughts i had while reading:

Tory had to say no because Darius truly didn’t understand what was at stake, who he was gaining. Now is their chance to really pass the TRUE test to their pairing and build a relationship built on more than hate and sex.
This book is so fucking good
Tory and Darius literally have me screaming
The bday party scene AHHH
Yes I wish there was more pitball now I understand the game better. honestly better than quidditch.
FUCK KYLIE FUCK THAT BITCH FUCKKKKK
Why are these authors destroying me WHY R U DOING THIS TO ME
I am team Mission: Defy the Stars
I want Seth with his new love interest so badly it’s not even funny
(Insert clip of Leo screaming “I defy you, stars!”)
I need a Gabriel spice scene in this series at some point dear god
AKDKANDKAFKNFKFEKLEK CLIFFHANGER TWIST WHY WHY WHYYYYYYYYYYY
