The Academy by Katie Sise

3.0

I very much liked the story, the main character has a great growth arc, I loved the representation of different relationships (both friends, family, romantic, and mentor) in this story. And overall a fun and cute story. But I hated the end. It felt like it just stopped. You spend the whole book hearing about the war games and about 1/4 of the book hearing about her leadership project. And then don't get the satisfaction of getting to see them even a bit. That was a let down, I'd have even loved a quick prologue that shows how the semester ends and lets us know if she's going back for her junior year.
