Devils
In the previous book review I mentioned how the plot and pace finally seem to be picking up and that this continues into the 3rd book. Needless to say I'm kind of disappointed...
The entire book felt like a carrot being dangled infront of me to keep reading to find the answer to the burning question "what are the order forms of the twins?". So imo, this fallowed the same formula as the last book, y=x². We pick up right from the absolute chaos which we left off at the end of book 2, and spend maybe a few chapters recovering from that, and just continuing on with the obnoxious student life in ZA. The Nyphms did not feel like a threat AT ALL through out the book as their presence is negligible and none of the students or teachers seem to be all that worried about it (even tho they have curfew now and patrol, but again no one is fallowing that).
"it will test the abilities you have learned in your Elemental classes" (which nothing???)
When it came to "The Reckoning" i was also quite disappointed as I expected the trials to actually be something hard, challenging and epic.... But given that these students were basically taught nothing up until these trials, I guess we can call them challenging enough for them.
The jumbled up headphone wires of relationships between the characters...
"“I thought you were different,” he said slowly. “But you’re just like your whore of a sister, pining after bastardos who treat you like dirt and who only give you a second look because you’d drop onto your knees for them any time they liked. Es patético.”" (YES PREACH HERMANO! FINALLY SOMEONE WITH BRAINCELLS )
So I think Diego has summed it up pretty well. This scene I was so confused because how is it that Tory can prefer her literal bully and enemy over her friend who is asking her for help. If anything the "sex addiction" claims on Tory Vega seem to really be holding up.
At this point the only character I care about is Geraldine. I just want to read an entire spinoff series with her because the main "plot" is not plotting...
Overall, it was a fun read but that's about it. So far this series is just a turn off your brain and let the drama play out vibes.
