Ransomed to the World by Stacey Brutger

Did not finish book. Stopped at 9%.

I couldn't get into Ransomed to the World, which is really unfortunate because I remember adoring the first two books when they released. The relationship between the Heroine and Heroes didn't feel solid, and the chemistry between them felt off. Also, the world-building wasn't cohesive – what was the point of the paranormal university given the plot of the third book? I didn't have any interest in their scheming because the Heroine didn't seem to have a purpose – what were her goals? What was she trying to achieve? Also, I found it so frustrating how every big decision the Heroine made was flat-out foolhardy, yet it was always framed later on as ingenious and not what it actually was: dumb luck.
