While trying to figure out a way to save their members from the mysterious attack in the cemetery, the Hunters are forced to defend their safe house from a surprise attack by werewolves. Trying to get the answers they need will have to wait but they’re not the only ones with questions. Alex is still looking for her sister when she finds someone who remembers her and the realization that there’s more who are missing increase the mysteries for the Night School.

I liked this volume a lot more than the previous. I think the adults were handling their roles more appropriately and I think this also had much needed world building. Definitely interested to see where it goes.

I feel like I've been thrown into this world with no backstory and while I'm still enjoying it, I think I could have enjoyed more if some things were explained.

Svetlana Chmakova is one of my favorite middle grade graphic novelists, and when I saw she had a YA series also, I jumped on it.
NIghtschool is a quadrilogy revolving around a school that hosts normal high school classes and students during the day, but at night, the classes and students are very different, and not a little dangerous. The third volume puts a lot of attention on the Hunters, who have been betrayed by another human, resulting in a werewolf attack at the Hunter hideaway. Alex, meanwhile is now being trained by Mr. Roi in advanced techniques.
Nightschool Vol 3 is a satisfying follow up to volume 2, and I look forward to reading the remainder of the series.

Didn’t keep me gripped or engaged the way the first 2 did :(

Well, now I really wish more volumes of this were out. I'm feeling like the story is finally starting to coalesce.
