4.5
Second, it's a bully romance. I've only read one other and while I ended up getting into it and liking it, it was definitely rough going. This held true for Zodiac Academy. The relationships are really complicated and dark. There is very little consensual anything happening in this book. If you can set that aside...then you'll probably be ok.
I really like Zodiac Academy as a school. The magic system is great so far. We've only dipped our toe into the pool in this first book. I was hoping to find out the twins Order, but should have known it wouldn't be that easy.
Everyone is keeping secrets and I have no idea who the real villain is or what the real problem is, but I'm excited to find out.
