1.5

“Welcome to the brutal and elite world of Basgiath War College.”

I’m sorry but where are the life threatening challenges? Do I really have to remind you that e.g. Katniss Everdeen has been through worse in one year than Violet ?

Violet, dear, if the parapet was so dangerous then every other cadet would have slipped and you would have not traded one of your shoes with a stranger.

Also, please don’t get me started Xaden’s character. There is absolutely no reason to fall for a guy who has repeatedly told you that he will kll you. 


If you enjoyed the book, good for you.
It’s a 1.5 for me.
