Once read a review will be written via Smashbomb and link posted in comments
On the eve of his college graduation, Harry is called home by his step-mother Alice, to their house on the Maine coast, following the unexpected death of his father.
But who really is Alice, his father's much younger second wife? In a brilliant split narrative, Peter Swanson teases out the stories and damage that lie in her past. And as her story entwines with Harry's in the present, things grow increasingly dark and threatening - will Harry be able to see any of it clearly through his own confused feelings?
It was ok. A decent story but a little predictable. A few parts that can possibly be trigger points but that’s what I see writing as taking on those issues that most people shy away from. In my opinion they were both toxic and she got what she deserved in the end! Some would argue she a product of how she was raised! I think I will try a few more books from Peter Swanson.

There are a few twists and turns in this story, some that you can see building up and others that blindside you. It is emotionally laden without being bogged down and takes you along with Adria onto her journey into madness. Isaac is still coming into his own and is not sure about much apart from Adria but something will happen which makes him take a stand and I feel that he grows so much because of it.
This whole story is quite simply blowing me away and I have already started Book 3 - The Ballad of Aramei.

⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️
When Caroline finds her mortal best friend, Felicity, at Destine Academy, a whole new string of questions unfolds—and Caroline is faced with the extent to which her aunt will go to get her way.As Caroline struggles to heal her body, her heart is torn between her growing feelings for both Corbin of the Surnaturals and Aldrick of the Magicks. But the lingering question is Does she even have a choice?With her aunt pretending the locker room incident was a simple gas leak, Caroline and her friends decide to take matters into their own hands and find a way to protect themselves against Tempeste’s growing powers. But first, they must return Eloise’s memories to her, if they’re to have any hope
And good instalment in the Destine Academy series these books are not long but you get so much info and story packed in you feel like you have read a full length book. We pick back up with Caroline and friends as they find a way to protect themselves from Tempeste. Really enjoyed it.
