You Don’t Choose The Academy. The Academy Chooses You. I had no idea how those words would change my life. Or how they’d changed my life already… Until the day the most dangerous man I’ve ever met waltzed onto my farm and left us a death sentence. In an invitation. My younger brother has been chosen for the prestigious, secret magical school hidden within the folds of our mundane world. A place so dangerous, they don’t guarantee you’ll make it out alive. If he doesn't go our entire family will be killed. It’s the same invitation my older brother received three years ago—the same place he mysteriously died. The academy has already killed one sibling. I’ll be damned if they take another. I do the only thing an older sister can: chop off my hair, strap on two bras to flatten the girls, and take my brother’s place. Magic and monsters are real. Assassins are coming for me, and the dead are prone to rise. What’s a girl faking it as a boy supposed to do? That’s right—beat the academy at its own game. Or die trying. Shadowspell Academy Book 1 and Shadowspell Academy Book 2 end with a cliffhanger.

so let say that this book reminds me of Mulan (the Disney movie), the huger games and the maze runner. only with magic. that just sounds like a amazing book though.
and it was a very good book, I loved that our main character takes the place of her brother to protect him, because there older brother had died during this trials, only she didn't now that it was magical, so she feels betrayed when her father knows the story,
while going to the location given in the book she gets kidnapped and thrown in a helicopter and brought to the location, where the stuff made a production in which house she is going to be. during the ride she made a friend who is obsessed with death.
The five houses
House of Wonder
House of Night
House of Claw
House of Shade
House of Unmentionables
while going through the trials what are dangerous stuff she needs to hide that's she is female, this book is action packed and short, I read this and went to look how far I was in the kindle book and I was already 30% in the book while I just read 20 minutes, I hope the rest of the serie would be short.
