3.0
Il libro ha un’ambientazione mitologica, con divinità greche. Lo stile dell’autrice è scorrevole e coinvolgente, e i dialoghi sono divertenti e ironici. Tuttavia, ho trovato il libro troppo simile alla serie Vampire Academy. Mi è sembrato di leggere la stessa storia con nomi diversi. I personaggi mi sono sembrati poco originali e prevedibili, e la trama non mi ha riservato grandi sorprese. Mi sarebbe piaciuto leggere qualcosa di più innovativo e sorprendente.
In conclusione, il libro si lascia leggere ma non mi ha entusiasmato.

DNFing because the love interests name is the same as my little brothers and the fmc nicknames are Alex and Lexi which are the same as mine.. so not rating because I found this interesting but for personal reasons simply cannot go on

Feels super young. That might be my fault I don't think I looked closely at the description

Undecided whether I’ll continue reading this series, it didn’t stand out to me

I didn’t know that this was a reprint, but this author has been everywhere lately and I really wanted to try out a book from her repertoire and so I have and honestly, I love this book.
The premise of her other books don’t really appeal to me anymore because they’re usually coming-of-age/“find out that I’m the chosen one as soon as I turn 18” kind of books and I’m not in the right headspace to want those books anymore. This book still had the same kind of flavor, and yet, it was different all the same.
I liked the bond aspect and how she tries her hardest to not give into it. I also really like the cover and I’m excited to see what the other reprints look like, I just don’t know if I’ll read the rest of the series.

Within this first book in the Covenant series we're introduced to Alex, a young girl who was taken out of school, against her society's guidelines, by her mother and lived on the run. After finding her mother's body she was on the run from the demons that live in their world, trying to survive, and hopefully, get back to the school she was taken away from. Before she can reach the safety of its walls she's found and taken back. It's been three years, and she has one summer to prove that she can make up lost time and start the school year on par with her peers... and stay out of trouble. She must find a way to balance her friendships, her tendency to break the rules, her hormones, and the truth of her past as well as that of her future. This opening novel lays a foundation for what will hopefully be an epic tale of finding yourself, falling in love, trusting others, and probably changing the world. I'm excited to see what comes next.
