0I needed this series, after becoming completely addicted to [b:Elemental Fae Academy: The Complete Trilogy|50668942|Elemental Fae Academy The Complete Trilogy|Lexi C. Foss|https://i.gr-assets.com/images/S/compressed.photo.goodreads.com/books/1580091676l/50668942._SY75_.jpg|75687462] and apparently landing in a never-ending book hangover. We did meet Aflora in the EFA trilogy and there are more tie-ins throughout, so you may want to read this first. (Cover & link to book 1 are below).
The writing is impressive, and the world is one I wouldn’t mind visiting; though it’s a bit dark at times, it’s more intriguing. Aflora is a brilliantly designed character who I instantly loved and continuity from meeting her in her own world, that of the elemental fae is on point.
Also: even though I basically did accurately guess how this book turned out, there was a little twist I hadn’t expected. I’m always super impressed by any little detail that I don’t manage to predict because it’s super rate.
Character development and the interpersonal relations are highly advanced. I got really into the various connections and enjoyed some really sweet moments between, not just Aflora and the respective men, but the men themselves. Brilliant writing.
Ends on a cliffhanger, but book 2 is out now, so no worries.
Note:
I both read the ebook and listened to the audiobook.
Audiobook remarks: There are multiple narrators, all with smooth, easy-to-listen-to voices and clear enunciation. The team definitely adds to the reading experience. Well done!
Also: Great continuity. Ella’s appearance in this one sounded the same (if it’s not the same, it’s def close enough) as she did in [b:Ella's Masquerade|50397222|Ella's Masquerade (Midnight Fae Academy ##0.5)|Lexi C. Foss|https://i.gr-assets.com/images/S/compressed.photo.goodreads.com/books/1578767558l/50397222._SY75_.jpg|75356545]. (Cover below—a fun listen, check it out!)
Ebook remarks: Absolutely stunning. One of the prettiest book interiors I’ve ever seen. And editing is well done, content is free of distracting errors.
Therefore:
Ebook: 5 stars
Audiobook: 5 stars
Narrators’ performances: 5 stars to everyone.
⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️

The world-building alone warrants ALL the stars. 10 out of 5. This world is much like a drug; I’m addicted and will never get enough.
