Ruin and Redemption Preston Academy 2 by Bianca Mov | A Review

Hi there!!!!

Welcome back to Quills and Pages. This is Quills and I am back with the second book of Preston Academy Series: Ruin and Redemption written by Bianca Mov. This is the first book in the series of Preston Academy Series. First book was ended on a very bloody (literally) cliffhanger and I could not wait to dive head first into this second book of the series.

Welcome back to Preston Academy. Feeding on your classmates is strictly prohibited and being cursed isn't a reason to stay away from class.

The school year continues with new secrets, a love that lasted for generations and a curse that can't be broken.

MY REVIEW
So in Ruin and Redemption the story continues and it is revealing more and more secrets of the present and the past. The School for criminals is a total change in this book. I won't be spoiling any thing for you so this review will be short.

Alexander is blaming himself for all the wrong in the world. The students are getting more and more ruthless. Avery has made some more new friends and the friendship dynamic is going strong amidst all the things going wrong. Avery is assigned to special classes due to her peculiar situation (which you are going to find out when you read the book)

Avery also has started playing again without any twitch or anxiety and she is also snooping on things in the library that's where the new epic plot twist happens and that's it 😂. That's the review.

The book was amazing in terms of story and plot. The whole gothic vibe of the school is just amazing and then there are mysterious things happening as a subplot. On the whole the book was great. And after finishing Ruin and Redemption I find out the third book has yet to come 😅. Anyway I recommend the series.

THE BEST PART
☙ The Gothic Dar Academic vibe of the School
☙ The great epic love consisting of a lot of pain, wait and time lapse.

☙ The armpit scene was hilarious😅😂

THE WORST PART:
☙ Not that I think of. Although I am sensing the past that Avery faced is going to be gruesome and I am not going to like it.

A Critical Lens on 'Hunting Adeline' by H.D. Carlton: Exploring the Disturbing Themes | A Review

I kept delaying writing the review because I had to remember it and didn't want to do that. This 2nd book of Cat and Mouse duet is the story of a human trafficking survivor. This book is a huge TRIGGER WARNING . Kindly proceed with caution. I even got traumatized after reading it. So to explain the synopsis; Adeline (the main character) got kidnapped at the end of the first book and sold to some people who groomed her for some very rich and powerful clients. Almost half of the book is based on Adeline surviving the worst situations possible for a woman. Adeline had one advantage someone was fervently searching for her, and eventually, Zade managed to rescue her after four agonizing months. The scene when Zade finds her and she just could not believe it. She crumbled to her knees thinking she was hallucinating. After Zade brings her home she struggles so hard to process her trauma. She learns to fight to take control of her life. She gets close to her mother. She hates h...

On Wings of Blood by Briar Boleyn | A Review

What's Up, Readers!! Welcome to Quills and Pages. I just finished On Wings of Blood arc....and now I am here to write the review. the book is written by Briar Boleyn and Thank you to Netgally and the author for this arc. iSo, let's start the review BLURB I didn't sign up for this. A half-fae in a school of highblood vampires? That's a recipe for torment. I'm Medra Pendragon—last of the dragon riders, or so they tell me. Funny thing is, there are no dragons left. Not a single one. But somehow, that hasn't stopped the vampires from deciding I'm worth capturing. Now I'm stuck at Bloodwing Academy, where the highbloods run everything and blightborn like me? We're just blood in their veins, pawns in their games. But that's not even the worst part. Enter Blake Drakharrow. Cold, arrogant, and way too gorgeous for his own good. He's been tormenting me since the moment we met, and now, thanks to some ancient ritual, we're betrothed. He acts like h...

The Bond That Burns by Briar Boleyn | A Review

What's Up, Readers!! Welcome to Quills and Pages. I finally got myself to sit down to write this review for the second book of Bloodwing Academy series. Today is a good day because it's cloudy and windy with a chance of slight rain....and nothing puts my mood better than a chance of rain and wind. anyway let's get started!! BLURB At Bloodwing Academy, blood is currency, but a dragon's legacy is priceless–and as dangerous as fire. I thought surviving my first year in Bloodwing's deadly halls would be enough. I was wrong. I accidentally woke a dragon–a creature of myth, of death, of fire. Now every highblood house wants control over me and the dragon's legacy I carry. But here's the I have no control. I'm bluffing my way through every encounter, trying to keep everyone from realizing that I'm not the one pulling the dragon's strings. And then there's Blake Drakharrow. I thought he was on my side, that I might even be able to trust him. But he b...
