Curses: A Paranormal Academy Series

by Emery Cole

Carissa’s a junior at one of the most prestigious academies for magical beings. She recently lost her mother in a highly questionable death, yet, one that she denies is suspicious. She’s intent on getting the best grades possible and spending time with her perfect boyfriend Nick.

At least, when she isn’t forced to go her tutoring lessons with Ronin. Her! Tutoring lessons! Unheard of. She’s always been a straight A student. So what if she got one B? Okay, a B minus, but still. So, back to Nick.

Things seem to go to hell in a handbasket when she catches him with her best friend. You’d think that’s the worst of it, wouldn’t you?

Until she realizes there’s evil at bay. Evil that wishes ill for her and her sisters.

Entertaining but stops in the middle

Iffy character development. Book 1 was pretty strong with good characters. This character is much weaker, unappealing, narcissistic. If I’d know the author was going to switch characters I don’t think I’d have bought the book. Gets better later in the book as she changes but the change is so dramatic, it’s unbelievable. The book doesn’t work well. At 179 pages there are too many loose ends.

I liked the story but expected more about the younger sister.
