Excuse the pun but I am a sucker for anything vampire or set in a school, so the setting of Katmere Academy is everything I can ask for. 

Grief and guilt riddles our main characters Jaxon and Grace from their respective histories. Grace being normal in a school full of vampires , witches and shapeshifters is a drama waiting to happen and from unknown enemies to attempts on her life that is exactly what we get.  

I loved getting to see Grace grow closer to her uncle and cousin after her parents death, as well as the friendships we see form with Jaxons friends for her too.  Not necessarily forbidden but a romance that’s a battle of feelings and fear for her and Jaxon it’s heartwarming to see romance bloom amongst warring factions. 

I couldn’t have seen the end of this coming and am ultimately glad I already have the second book as I’m sure right now that I will devour this series and it will become a firm favourite.

I liked this. Definitely a mix between Twilight and Harry Potter with some mild cursing. Very angsty teenage girl and angsty teenage boy. 
Some triggers may include:
❤️ Death of parents 
❤️ Attempted Murder 
❤️ And possibly more. 

It was hard to get into at the beginning but it got much better towards the end. Very exciting and action packed.

I tried so hard to finish this book but the writing being so repetitive and insufferable made it too hard. DNF at 427 pages, the first half of the book is twilight except less enjoyable and set in Alaska and when the MC finally discovers her love interest is a vampire, it only gets worse. The MC inner monologue was so hard to read & overall I started hate-reading it just to say I finished it but I can’t do it anymore after the “romance” started getting more serious & harder to endure lmaooo.

Ich muss sagen, am Anfang hatte ich echt Probleme ins Buch reinzukommen. Ich weiß nicht, ob es an dem Buch oder mir lag, ich fand Grace echt zickig/nervig, aber nach einem erzwungenen Beiseitelegen und wieder aufnehmen, hat sich meine Wahrnehmung sehr verändert. Ich habe das Buch in Rekordtempo zuende gelesen und genossen. Immer wieder war ich von den Entwicklungen überrascht oder hab an meiner Einschätzung gezweifelt. Ein gelungener erster Band der Reihe. (Ich hab mir direkt Band 2&3 besorgt)

The dialogue can often be juvenile and cliche. Also phrases both in dialogue and in internal thoughts can be a little repetitive at times. But it was a fun story. It kept me turning the pages.

The slow burn romance of this book was AMAZING! It you’re looking for smut, you won’t find it here though. But the relationship between the two characters was so sweet. Ends on a MAJOR cliffhanger.
