I liked the additions of all the extra characters and their plot lines. The story is getting a bit repetitive, but I understand that it’s basically just a vessel for the harem romance plot, which I am kinda fine with. But the ending left me rethinking the entire story…

Daaaaaaamn! Didn’t see that ending coming! I’m fully invested in this series at this point, especially after that cliffy. I like getting to know the Bonds/Bonded better and see how their family unit is growing stronger. Oli’s gifts are insane and badass. I desperately need to know Nox’s story, so I hope we dig deeper into that in the next book. Pretty grateful that I stumbled on this series after it was already completed so I can binge the hell out of it, lol!

5.0

Up until this book, we've only been in Oleander's POV. So we have all of these guys bullying her but also being her bonded mates who are biologically her soulmates. I just really wanted more from them since they had so much going on, and in this book, we finally got to see their POVs, and things are getting really intense. Plus, in this one, we are starting to pull away from the school structure and focusing more on the magical/war side of things. It's beginning to be really intense.

Ummm k. Cliff hanger much? Good thing all 6 books are on KU so I don’t have to wait, cause that ending has my head spinning. Are their human shifters? Like people who can look like others in J Bree’s world, cause if not i need answers asap.
