Luminary is more than just a school. It is a test of moral fiber, strength of will, and human resilience.Luminary is more than just a school. It is a test of moral fiber, strength of will, and human resilience.
Lia Michaels can pick any lock and break into most computer systems. But a life of delinquency has her bouncing between foster homes and juvie. So when she applies to Luminary Prep, a new experimental school created to challenge academic conventions, Lia is surprised by the acceptance letter that follows.
With state-of-the-art technology, fancy cafeteria food, and a campus that looks like a painting come to life, Luminary seems to be the break Lia needs. That is, if she can excel in class and be one of only five students who will be allowed to graduate.
But classes at Luminary are . . . odd. And dangerous. There is a death-trap obstacle course in Physics, a Chemistry exam with explosives, and guillotines in Political Science. As students keep vanishing, one by one, Lia starts to wonder if it's not that five students will graduate—but that only five will survive.

“I don't usually write reviews cause I don't really know how to properly get my thoughts out. But that being said, this was an ARC read and I have to say I was so excited for it.
However, these kids are portrayed to be in high school, and although this book is a YA, since when did we start putting phrases like "ripping his clothes off" or "getting me hot and bothered" into YA books. This book states 12 and older and I would not want my 12 year old reading this. Although it is mild, I still think it more appropriate for high school aged kids and above.
Onto the plot, to me it was a unique story and I feel like she could have taken it any direction. However, the end for me seemed a little anticlimactic, I was able to guess on certain things and it just made the story fall a little flat for me. I also feel like the end part when she finds stuff out was very hard to believe and just seemed far fetched in my opinion.
To anyone else who reads this, I hope you enjoy the ride more than I did. It wasn't a bad book, just not one I would read again. The build up is good and keeps you guessing, I just wish the end was different or the author had taken more time and kept me guessing and kept their "romance" aspects more age appropriate to what they state on the back of the book. 🤷♀️”
