A review by ravensandlace
Alpha by Jus Accardo
3.0
A special thank you goes out to Entangled Teen for allowing me to read this eARC early. All thoughts and opinions are my own.
Another series done and gone. All and all, it wasn't bad, despite the average rating. I certainly preferred some characters over others. But I'll talk more about that toward the end, when I do a series wrap up. Beware that the series wrap up will have some spoilers. They aren't super major but it's best to avoid that if you don't want to get spoiled.
The two MCs in this book were Sera and G, from the previous book. Now I didn't mind them but I just couldn't get into their POVs as much as I did for Ash and Noah. Sera was a fighter and she never gave up, which is something I admire. But I just couldn't connect with her. It felt like she was just waiting for people to save her instead of trying to get out of the situation. Same with G, in the sense that I couldn't get into his POV. He was a lot more darker than I'm used too and I think that's why I wasn’t a huge fan of him. I'm not the biggest fan of anti heroes. It takes a special character to get me really into them. And sadly, G was not it.
In this book, Dylan was more humanized that I had ever seen him and it was interesting. Honestly, I didn't think I would like it because I didn't like Dylan at all. I didn't like him as a person and I didn't like him as a villain. But I liked it? Who am I? I don't condone what Dylan did, not by a long shot. But the way Jus handled his redemption, talking about how some people just break when something traumatic happens. I don't know, that really got me and I suddenly did hate Dylan so much.
Series review;
This series was surprisingly good. When I first started, I wasn't sure if I was going to like it. Interdemensional travel? Confusing! My only experience is the Family Guy episode Road to the Multiverse. But the way Jus went about it, gave us chunks of information and broke down the concept into Layman's terms, it made sense. The Alpha project was still a bit unclear. I'm not entirely sure what the whole goal was there.
Noah and Ash were my favorite POVs out of all the POVs that were offered. There were just something about them that worked. They clicked so well together, even though Noah was putting up one hell of a fight. Their love for each other and their will to keep on fighting just made my heart melt.
Overall, this series was good! I need to own it, simply for the beautiful covers. Seriously, props to whoever did that. But anyway, if you are looking for an easy to read interdemensional travel book with romances that will make your heart swoon, then this series is the one for you.
