literally Leon is giving such Seth capella vibes this book. His chapters have been my favorite. I wish we got more of Elise in ZA but I get why we didn’t since this series has her backstory. I feel her mate bond with Gabriel is so weird bc I thought he couldn’t see mates????? Also they just like… fuck and then he’s mean for 2 chapters then is like oooooop nevermind I guess?? Also ryder is so insufferable I haaaaaate him

A little slow at first and Gareth’s chapters are boring lol but I love Ryder, Gabriel, Leon, and Dante. Elise is great and I’m excited to see where this goes the ending really picked it up for me

 one thing about this duo they're gonna write a mary sue! they manage to make it addictive to read though somehow bc i was on the edge of my seat pretty much the whole time. i was worried i'd find this boring because i'm starting it in the middle of zodiac academy (on a huge cliffhanger) but i got sucked into this story way faster than i expected. i will say it's very OTT and it's a reverse harem so probably not for everyone but i found this so fun. it's in the same world as zodiac academy (just set at a different academy) and it's kind of a murder murder mystery with turf wars and some insane secret society/cult it had my blood pressure spiking constantly.

the writing itself isn't amazing but it's consistent with their other works i've read so far and it might be growing on me or something because it bugged me way less this time around. there isn't a lot of spelling/grammar mistakes (that i've noticed) it's more just the writing style and prose. i think the ridiculousness of the plot in general helps carry the writing since i never got a chance to notice pacing or similar issues with the writing because i was just so excited to see what would happen next. if you want a fun read (and can put up with the whole mary sue/alpha girl thing) though? it definitely delivers.
