Can we please strike the word “mate” from our vocabularies. Words like “mate” gets thrown around and it honestly just leads me to excessive alcohol use. I admired that, but honestly, I am still not a fan of insta-love. She does not let Jaxon walk over her, and she’s not afraid to call it like it is. Grace does have a lot more bite than Bella, which I liked.
Kinda smart, kinda nerdy, doesn’t wear makeup (because I’m not like the other girls. Personality-wise she and Bella are very similar in my opinion. First off, we have Grace, who is our Bella. Let’s compare this whole thing to Twilight. Twilight is also mentioned BY NAME in the book, so I was just like -_. At first, I thought to myself that I should not compare it to Twilight, but then I did because it was obviously marketed that way. This book does a lot to be compared to Twilight. However, I’m not blind to the flaws so I’ll try to be as objective as possible. I am trash for vampire boarding schools, so I’m all for it. I’m going to start off by saying that I really enjoyed this book. And now someone wants to wake a sleeping monster, and I’m wondering if I was brought here intentionally-as the bait. But there’s something about him that calls to me, something broken in him that somehow fits with what’s broken in me.īecause Jaxon walled himself off for a reason. A vampire with deadly secrets who hasn’t felt anything for a hundred years. I only know the one thing that unites them is their hatred of me. I still can’t decide which of these warring factions I belong to if I belong at all. Here I am, a mere mortal among gods…or monsters. Nothing is right about this place or the other students in it. Goodreads Description: My whole world changed when I stepped inside the academy. Anyhow, let’s get into it.Ĭontent Warnings: Parental Death, Death of a loved one
But now it’s September and I’ve reread Twilight, read Midnight Sun, and I’ve read Crave (which is essentially a Twilight retelling). If someone had told me last year that 2020 would be the year of Twilight, I would have laughed. Well hello, friends! How are you all doing this week? Today I have a Crave Book Review up.
