Wish i'd known this was a part of a new series before i'd started ☹️ now i'm utterly unprepared for this cliffhangar hhh
(well i'm assuming it's a part of a series, because the book suddenly concluded when things were starting to get interesting. If not, that's a horrible ending-

This book would’ve scored far higher in my regard if it had had a better ending. I think that the author rush to complete this book, and that is most evident in how she chose to end the book.

Incredibly trope-y. Ends on a major cliffhanger and there's currently no sign of a sequel.

Listened to the audiobook free, via Audible.

 The Details:
 Narrated by Sophie Amos
Unabridged


This was a bit of a grating one. It was one of those "let's just try" moments and though it kept my attention here and there whilst I was doing bits around the home, when I was just solely listening to it, I was in and out of concentration and didn't really care.

Part of this was that I think my time for YA paranormal romances has sailed. I struggled to get past the cringey tone of the scenes and characters involved. The other part was the voice for Maggie was incredibly irritating, and being one of the main characters, you get a lot of dialogue with her in, so it was a lot to push through.

I think this could be a fun series if you enjoy YA paranormal romances that definitely doesn't deviate much from the classic tropes if the genre. I most likely won't be carrying on with them, however.

I imagine the author like: It makes perfect sense to recruit two teenagers for a super secret governmental agency that fights shitty monsters WHO ONLY ATTACK THIS TOWN instead of field agents from CIA or FBI.
