After debating whether or not to have a go at this one, simply due to the mediocre feeling I got from the first book of the series, I am so glad I dove in! Definitely more meat to the story, with excellent character development! I was mad every time I had to pause and act like an adult, truly being sucked in to the story. Can’t wait to see how the story keeps evolving!!

I love this book so much I can't even explain. One of my favorites of all time
Juliette joins the X-Men and further figures out her powers while also deciding if she should be in love with a homicidal maniac’s son. The writing in this book is compelling so I think I’ll keep going, but coming from Romantasy, I find the two MMC‘s less than ideal. Neither one of them really appreciates Juliette for what she’s worth and one seems to love her because she is a freak and not due to any intrinsic potential that she has. Warner in particular seems to want to exploit how messed up she is, which is not a quality in a protagonist that I admire. Juliette’s obsession with the bad boy that she shouldn’t have — true to her namesake — is not the pining, “will she won’t she,” push-pull that I want it to be. In fact, it starts to get a little annoying at the end. But I was patient with Auren in Gild and I have this niggling feeling that I should be patient with Juliette and see her narrative through at least book 3.
I liked it!! Just as the first one it was an immersive and super quick read, but I liked this one a little better. I enjoyed seeing more of the world and powers, and the ending was truly promising for the next one as well. I was like YES FINALLY
I feel like the first book is a wattpad story. The FMC is 17 years old but she comes off as super younger for me. This series is definitely meant for teenager, etc. I am way too old and way too mature for this series.
