A review by booksandsparkles
Maxton Hall College by Mona Kasten
5.0
This book was everything! It's translated from German (original title: 'Save Me') and I really do hope for everyone out there that it gets translated in English as well, because I loved it so much! Keep an eye out for books by Mona Kasten (I think her other series got translated though.. begin again, etc.)
Ruby and James are exactly the opposites. She wants to dissapear, let no one know her. He is the king of the school, the handsome rich kid that can do anything he wants. Or so it looks like.. when he goes to far, the principle punished him with joining the activities committee, where Ruby has the lead. And Ruby is his sworn enemy, since she saw something no one can know...
The vibes of this school are amazing. It's an old building, it feels very much like a castle or old cloister or something. Which is super cool. When they organise a themed party (will not spoiler the theme yet), it fits so well within these vibes.
And then the romance, I absolutely love it. It's slow sometimes, but it burns and it explodes. I just fell hard for James and Ruby! I really couldn't handle the ending, luckily part 2 is coming soon!
