NA. better suited to a younger reader.
Very angsty. Sometimes good, but more often annoying.
Problems are constantly created, and just as quickly solved or ignored.
You never get to get involved, or be immersed within the story, it’s all too quick and very young.
The characters are supposed to be college aged, between 18 and 21, but they read more like teens, 14 to 18.
The FMC is so childish, delicate, emotional, a Mary Sue, with ultimate special snowflake attributes. Though we’re constantly being told that she’s stoic, enduring, ballsy… but other than a few moments, we never see this.
Worst of all is the classic asshole trope, that has one MMC only to smile at the FMC, and suddenly she’s all hot and needy for him, despite his constant cruelty.
At one point, he bluntly stated that he was willing to see her thrown out and permanently harmed in order to protect his brothers against possible harm. Just one of his charming moments.
The world building is very interesting, and what kept me reading. But it’s all too brief. We only get glimpses before we’re dragged off in to another of the FMC’s dramas.
Too young, too angsty, followed by instant and cringe fixes that feel like your reading a high school drama.
I liked 3 of the MMC’s, but not the alphahole or the FMC.
I won’t be continuing, but I could see how a younger reader could enjoy.

I read books like these and wonder if it's possible to move in to the next chapter without the mc passing out
The author has gone in circles and there is hardly any plot
Family and best friend is forgotten
There's cooing and purring and breathing in the neck and God damn Wattpad has better writing than whatever this was

The Lost Elemental
So I'm writing this after having finished the trilogy. I really liked the storyline. At first, I thought it might be like another series or very similar, but it ended up being completely different. The trilogy is completed and was really good. But it left me wanting more, like an extended epilogue with a bit more to it than that last chapter of the final book. Definitely recommend reading this, plus it's finished for those of you who won't read unless they are.

Fantastic read. I mean this book had me gripped from the first paragraph. This book was amazing in its detail, the plot is a variation of stuff I had read before, but this was so well done. The twists and turns are many, and the pace is perfect.
Aura, And her guys are on a trip that is for sure. It was great to see a paranormal academy read that was of this caliber. It’s written in first person pov, and I really enjoyed it. I cannot wait to read the next book.
