Book Review: Psycho Academy by Jasmine Mas (Cruel Shifterverse Book 4)

     Aran has been kidnapped by Lothaire and taken to the Elite Academy. She must stab her hand down on a tree blade to determine her placement. But, there must be a mistake. She is not powerful enough to be an assassin sat with literal Kings. Too bad they hate her, even if they don't know she's a she. 

    Spoilers. Everything, even that above, is a spoiler if you haven't read books 1-3. Yes, books 1-3 are about Sadie, but Aran plays a big part in her story. I think I love Aran's story more than Sadie's. Sadie is more positive, and more winey, while Aran has a major drug addiction. Either way, please go read the other books in the series before this one. 

    Moving on. I loved this book. This is another Reverse Harem/Why Choose enemies to lovers. There are explicit scenes and a lot of violence. Including skin literally being melted off bones. We meet the kings and John in this book. John is the sunshine to Aran's grumpy and I love him more than words. The kings...well Mitch is a lot. You'll get that reference later. 

    I loved Aran's torture methods using Sadie. Basically everything about this series is a yes for me. But, please, check your trigger warnings before you read it. There is degradation, murder, torture, attempted murder, an orgy, and much much more. That being said, I have found a new favorite author and can't wait to demolish absolutely every book she has or will write.

Book Review: The Survivor by Rowena Redman (Kingdom of Parvery Book 1)

     Myrbeth was born in a town that was soon after completely destroyed. Only her mother escaped with her clasped tightly to her breast. Taking her to a neighboring king's court she was taken in as her mother died from her wounds. She grew up with the king's sons, but she has now come of age that she must marry. With most other kingdom's refusing what will happen to her? 

    I received a physical copy of this book from the author in exchange for an honest review. I loved the cover on this book. 

    This book is mostly an opener or introduction to the series. It gives you background on the main characters, has romance aspects, and shows how others treat Myrbeth. We learn about the war against the kingdoms and witness the first battle. This book absolutely ends on a cliff-hanger with most of the main story still to be covered. 

    While this was a starter book it was interesting and I enjoyed the characters. The solution to problems with Myrbeth were obvious long before anything was even admitted in the book. I would absolutely read more in this series and by this author in the future. 

    No real trigger warnings in this YA read. It is set in a mythical kingdom, but as mythical kingdom, but as far as I know it is not a fantasy. obviously, there is a war, bloodshed, and betrayal so there are those if you consider them triggers.
