Zodiac Academy: The Awakening
By Caroline Peckham & Susanne ValentiPublisher Description
I’m a Gemini. Impulsive. Curious. Headstrong. A twin. Heir to a throne I know nothing about. And it turns out, I’m Fae.
But of course there’s a catch - all I have to do to claim my birth right is prove that I’m the most powerful supernatural in the whole of Solaria. And sure, technically that’s true as I’m the daughter of the Savage King. But the bit they didn’t put in the brochure was that every single Fae in this Kingdom would claim my throne if they could.
The school they’ve sent me to is both dangerous as sh*t and one helluva party. Vampires bite weaker students in the corridors, the Werewolf pack has orgies in the Wailing Wood at every full moon and don’t even get me started on the dark and twisted ways the Sirens use their powers on people’s emotions, or how my sinfully tempting Cardinal Magic teacher hosts detentions that leave people needing therapy.
Classes are totally interesting if you manage to live through them. And that Gemini star sign I mentioned? It now determines my elemental magic and affects my destiny, so learning astrology is essential if I’m going to beat down my classmates – which is actively encouraged by the way.
My biggest problem is the drool worthy Dragon shifter who has his eyes on my throne. He and his three psycho friends are determined to make my time here hell.
All I’ve got to do is survive. But fate might have other ideas.
Dammit, why couldn’t I have gotten a letter to Hogwarts?
***This is a dark, bully romance – don’t go expecting a sweet school for magic with friends around every corner. Fae fight for everything they own and Zodiac Academy is a cutthroat school for students aged 18+ where only the strongest prevail. There’s no Dumbledore here to save anyone’s ass and Lionel Acrux will give Voldemort a run for his money in the evil dictator category. So hold onto your stardust (broomsticks not required) and get ready for a bumpy ride***

“I started reading this because of the hype. So I'm assuming the rest of the 20 ish books of this saga is what makes people adore it because this first book... Maybe too YA for me, idk. I heard the graphic audio at the same time through 50% of the book and I guess the experience eas better before listening to it. It's not bad its just too juvenile.
Now about what actually happens in the book, it was interesting enough to make me wanna read at least the second one, but WTH is wrong with this fae people? 😅 It definitely surprised me how cruel they were to the twins. But there's 2 sides of every story and I believe when I read this book "as told by the boys" I'll understand them better? I hope?
Nevertheless, I liked the twins, and I wanna know what happens to them. I sure hope they can get even with the heirs and make them suffer a little.”

“I enjoyed this book. The violence and bullying was a bit much at times but I get that it has a point in the story. I really like Tory and Darcy and I am interested to see where this all ends up.”
