Once again, if you want to know what these books are about you’re going to need to find someone else to tell you, because I have no idea.
If you read my FLOCK review recently, you know that I had decidedly mixed feelings about that book, but decided to continue with the series. I’m glad I did, because I definitely liked EXODUS a lot more…but at the same time I still struggled with big chunks of it. Mostly, I felt like it made the first book feel almost obsolete in ways that didn’t really make sense, and once again the characters (ESPECIALLY Cecelia) drove me crazy with some of their poor decisionmaking.
That said, there were definitely some moments in here I really enjoyed and found charming/memorable. In short, after reading this I can say that I understand why this series has hooked some people the way it did! I’m not one of those people, but I have been entertained, and I will be finishing the series.

"Exodus" is the second book in The Ravenhood trilogy. Cecilia is trying to move on without Sean and Dominic, but she feels like she is drowning. Everything is only made worse by the annoying presence of her enemy, the Frenchman. Can she make it these last few months so she can get her inheritance and get out of Triple Falls?
I was very disappointed with the turn this story took. Cecilia was so "in love" with Sean and Dominic, but after a few months she starts hooking up the man known only as the Frenchman, Tobias. I know Sean and Dominic just up and left her, but I feel like she could have held out a little bit longer. And, why did she have to hook up with Tobias? I feel like it was just that he was in close proximity.
Dominic's plotline was devastating.
I am honestly kind of mad, and I do not know if I want to see what happens next.

I jumped into these series completely clueless, looking for romance and spice - and that's it. Boy, was I wrong. I did not expect this!
This book got my heart into a fist and squeezed hard, to a point I stopped breathing and was completely obsessed (and still am).
It was about damn time for the mc to grow up and become badass, but did it have to be this way?
I love them all.
I don't know what to expect from the next one, it better be fuckin therapeutic. 😂
