I was a little hesitant to read this because it was compared to Zodiac Academy and I really didn’t like the bullying in that book. While this also has a bully of an MMC, it also had an FMC who stood up to him and the bullying wasn’t pointless like it was in Zodiac Academy. I also enjoyed the slow burn of the romance as the MMC fell first. I can’t wait to read the second one!
One of my biggest criticisms is that the MMCs name is Blake. Who names a character in a fantasy novel as Blake? Seemed weird to me.

Hmm 🤔
That word keeps running through my head now that I have finished book 1 of Bloodwing Academy.
So many questions. This was expected, it is the first book in a series, after all.
But throughout the book I kept thinking of the prologue and what it stated. It didn't seem like a prologue to me it seemed like an epilogue. It was a sort of teaser. If you are starting to read the book and don't like spoilers I recommend you skip it because you know what is coming.
The amount of times I read the name Blake Drakharrow is ridiculous! His full name was mentioned 96 times! I mean I get it that's his name but ugh 🙄. Anyways Blake the MMC is a vampire and discovers the FMC Medra Pendragon, yes of the Arthur line, on a pile of dead bodies. She is immediately escorted to his Uncle "the king" of vampires and immediately betrothed.
This cat and mouse game continues for the entire book. Medra used to be all powerful in her other world but here she is the timid little mouse. Even though she doesn't act like it. All the vampires think this is crazy, a human or blightborn is talking back to them, fighting them, and trying to act like they are equals. It is an interesting academy setting and I did love the story of the two and how their relationship unfolds. I hope for more scenes of Blake because I really do think he cares for Medra just is unsure how to show it.

If Fourth Wing and Harry Potter had a baby with a vampire. A decent fantasy novel. But I absolutely hate the names in this series. They’re annoying to pronounce and would have rolled off the tongue in so much more of a pleasant way with just a couple of tweaks.
