Kodie Mackay's Reviews > Psycho Academy

Okay where do I start here..

I should probably start with the fact that I have already read all of Aran's stories. So I'm coming back to write this after the fact. Be patient with me whilst I try not to jumble everything up.

I think going in I already knew this would be a slower more painful burn. I did not anticipate just how slow. That being said it fit the characters and how their journey evolved.

John - The new bestie Aka the support system for Aran whilst Sadie can't be there. I loves him.

Orion - Creepy stalker. 100% the one playing in sheepskin whilst actually being a wolf. Cant speak (sort of).
Corvus - Control freak dominant temper tantrum bully boy. The face leader. Lights on fire anytime.
Scorpius - sadistic pain lover with creep stalker vibes with no shame. Also blind.

This one is a bitter pill to swallow because there were so many parts to every character that I just didn't like but I also understood the honesty for what it was. These characters are all painfully scarred and not in the least in their right minds for one reason or another. When I say it like that, it looks like I didn't like the story however that is not the case. I just need to be honest in the fact this book is tough and the contents are not for the faint of heart. It has severe abuse, torture, teasing and tension. It's a lethal combination. Especially given that this is book one of the three parts to Aran's journey and let me tell you in gets worse before better.

Saying that I did love this journey. I love Aran and just how broken she is and the fact she doesn't hide it. There are so many parts to her that you barely scrape in this book but this is the foundation of her and what becomes her rebirth. And baby, it is painful.

the tension and chemistry is insane and I really do love this weird world and all the possibilities it comes with.

Side note I under stand why Demetre and the boys where hinted at it the last book however I do feel like the narrative that is pushed is very wrong to the reality of the situation and it felt like a filler of sorts.
