The Elites
by Ruby Vincent
I can't believe it's over.
The story
After the ending of the last one, everything is in chaos. Zela is arrested as a suspect in the murder of Cameron, and so begins the search for his killer. Her secret is revealed, which is why she's enrolled on the girl's side of campus. Her last year of Breakbattle Academy is filled with trouble.
Soooo, last one! I hate that it's over lol. This time around, I enjoyed the romance, but I didn't enjoy the story as much. The way she figured out who For All was, was just random. Guess most of my predictions were right lol. The main part of the story was still Zela and her boys, For All and Cameron both didn't feel that important; they were kind of a big deal at the beginning and end of the story, but not really throughout. I'm not sure how to explain, it was just weird how I felt like it kind of disappeared to the background.
That being said, there were some plottwists that I didn't see coming, like
There were quite some mistakes in writing in this one, which bothered me a little and made me re-read certain sentences.
The characters
I liked Zela just a bit less in this one. She was stupid at multiple times troughout the story, I mean, Besides that, I enjoyed the boys, especially the last chapter so we could see where they all end up. I still don't really like Landon lol, but I'm glad we got some Derek time in this one.
Love u bud. Need that in my life, I feel you Zela.
We didn't see that much of Adam in this one, because Zela was forced over to the girls side. I really missed him, not going to lie. The last chapter confused me a bit, does it mean I still don't really like Jordan that much, she feels a bit convenient or something? Like she's only written so Adam has someone. She just didn't have as much depth as Melody in my opinion. Argh, I liked Adam and still hoped he'd end up with Zela .
Overall conclusion
I enjoyed this series immensely, although I didn't like the way some things wrapped up as much: some parts felt a bit unrealistic. That was another thing that kind of bothered me in this series; how can a teenage girl be THIS comfortable being naked around 4 different guys? I don't remember myself ever being that comfortable but okay. And then the 4 guys having no trouble whatsoever to share her? I don't know, but again - I don't know any guy who'd be okay with that. Besides that, I enjoyed (most of) the characters, and am sad it's over.

Spoiler
Seriously, she realised because of her socks?! I don't know, that was just far fetched to me.That being said, there were some plottwists that I didn't see coming, like
Spoiler
Dominick being her father! Wow, that was seriously unexpected. I now feel weird about shipping Zela and Cameron lol. Like I mentioned, I saw the Zach reveal coming, but the reason why?! Cameron slept with his mother? Damn, I didn't expect that. I actually felt bad for Zach at that point. Hunter wasn't really unexpected, but I liked how it wasn't Melody because she would've been even more obvious.There were quite some mistakes in writing in this one, which bothered me a little and made me re-read certain sentences.

Spoiler
she went to talk to Dominick alone, without telling anyone where she was?! A man who has ties to the mob, allegedly killed his nanny? And she, a teenage girl, goes to confront him, ALONE? Man, that's just plain stupid.I flip-flopped on my decision so many times Derek said he'd have sex with me if I made a choice and stuck with it.
Love u bud. Need that in my life, I feel you Zela.

Spoiler
he ends up with only Jordan and not with Melody? Maybe I missed her being mentioned, but I don't think I did? It just feels like she was written off without a goodbye, I don't know.Overall conclusion
