Reviews with content warning for Bullying - Ruthless Fae

While this was way better than the first part of the series I am still not convinced that this is a book which is meant to be taken seriously. Every character in this book is still a very horny teenager with anger issues. Thus this is definitely not a literary masterpiece but I must say at times it is fun to read. That's mainly because of the fact that all the characters tend to act like commidians. Also, I think that waiting for the point in the series where the story does get serious is hopeless but if you are looking for something fun to read in-between that will make you laugh a lot (mainly because everything that is happening is simply ridiculous) I would recommend reading it.

A lot better than the first book. Same quirky one liners and cringy at parts but story is great and fast paced. The world is interesting and great use of powers and characters.

I did listen to audiobook for parts towards end of book. Narrators were great!

I have an unpopular opinion about this book. I saw people say that gets better with each book, but I liked The Awakening better than this one. Neither of the books really had a plot, but The Awakening was an introduction to the characters and the world so i didn't mind. This one was basically the twins coming up with pratical jokes to get their revenge on the heirs and then going to a party, I still enjoyed it, but I guess I just wanted a little more plot. And I also wanted the twins to get more revenge on the heirs, I feel like they got off pretty easy after what they did at the end of The Awakening.

Another unpopular opinion is that i saw in most reviews that you either cared about Darcy and Orion or about Tory and Darius, but OMG I love both sooooooooo much and their scenes in this book were sooooo good.

I wasn't really sure about Tory and Darius before, I feel like they didn't get musch scenes in the first book, but this one sold me! The tension between them was so good!!!!!! I'm so excited for the rest of their story, I love the slow burn!!

And Darcy and Orion!!!! Ugh I love them from the first book, but I do think that they were way into each other in this one and I prefer slow burn. But wtv I still love them and the scene in the pool was amazing!!! And I can't to see what will happen next!!!

Also, that ending!!!!!!!!! It was amazing!!!! Can't wait for the next book!!!!!!

The professor / student pairing heats up. More forbidden spiciness and lots of pining. A new mystery presents itself. And my favorite secondary character starts to become more important to the plot. So much fun. 🌶️🌶️🌶️
