Review: Reign of Brayshaw

Title: Reign of Brayshaw
Series: Brayshaw High
Author: Meagan Brandy
Release Date: October 3rd

Blurb:

“Trust only those who earn it.”

A sentiment I follow without direction but holds more consequence than ever before.

One decision, five lives, three futures.
This is what’s at stake.

One night, one choice, four broken Brayshaws.
That is where we’re headed.

Unless I stop it.
I 𝘩𝘢𝘷𝘦 to stop it.

I have to remind him of what he’s chosen to forget.

My town. My choice. 𝘔𝘺 ending.

---
This is the third book in the Brayshaw Series, and the conclusion of Maddoc and Raven's story.

Review:

Oh my freaking God! Where do I even begin with this book?!
Boys of Brayshaw High and Trouble at Brayshaw High MUST BE READ FIRST. Reign of Brayshaw picks up where trouble ends! And those that think they are ready? Buckle up. It's one hell of a crazy ass ride!
I reread both Boys & Trouble to prepare for this book, and I still wasn't ready!
I was hooked from the very beginning. I couldn't put it down and stayed up until well past 2 am finishing this book, knowing damn well I was getting up with my daughter this morning. But. It. Was. So. Worth. It. I don't regret a second of it. And I finished and had no words. None. No idea what I was going to write for a review. The book was just so fucking Amazing and Meagan hit it out of the park. Not only is the cover stunning, but God, the story. This story. I did not want it to end. I felt every single emotion. All the twists and turns. Secrets and revelations. Choices that could change their lives forever. Every fucking thing. These characters are underneath my skin and embedded in my heart, and my soul. I love love love Raven, and Maddoc, and Captain, and Royce. I love that they would do anything for each other- protect one another. They found family in one another.
These books are must reads. If you haven't started these books yet, I highly recommend them. These books are fan-freaking-tastic. I am not ready to leave these characters yet- I will never be ready and I cannot wait to see what else Meagan has in store for us. 5 Raven is Queen ⭐ out of 5 ⭐.

Review: the Devouring Gray

Title: the Devouring Gray
Series: the Devouring Gray
Author: Christine Lynn Herman

Blurb:

On the edge of town a beast haunts the woods, trapped in the Gray, its bonds loosening…

Uprooted from the city, Violet Saunders doesn’t have much hope of fitting in at her new school in Four Paths, a town almost buried in the woodlands of rural New York. The fact that she’s descended from one of the town’s founders doesn’t help much, either—her new neighbours treat her with distant respect, and something very like fear. When she meets Justin, May, Isaac, and Harper, all children of founder families, and sees the otherworldly destruction they can wreak, she starts to wonder if the townsfolk are right to be afraid.

When bodies start to appear in the woods, the locals become downright hostile. Can the teenagers solve the mystery of Four Paths, and their own part in it, before another calamity strikes?

Review:

On the edge of town a beast haunts the woods, trapped in the Gray, it's prison slowly weakening...
Violet was uprooted from the city she lived, her mom taking her to Four Paths, a small town in Rural New York. She learns she is from one of the founding families- whatever that means. But that's not all, there is strange things happening, and she's set on getting to the bottom of it. She meets Justin, May, Issac, and Harper, the other children from the founding families- and sees the respect they get from other townsfolk- but also the fear.
Bodies are appearing in the woods, and the local towns people are turning hostile towards the founding families. Can Violet and the other founders children solve the mystery of what is happening in Four Paths, and how to stop it before it's too late?
This book is a perfect fall read. It's a little bit creepy, and mysterious. It switches back and forth between the founders children's point of views. First you have new comer Violet who has no idea what is going on, or who she can trust. She notices strange things happening, especially surrounding her and the other founding families, and she is set on getting to the bottom of it.
Justin and May are brother and sister. They have secrets- but every one of the founding kids do. Justin is set out on helping the town any way he can, even if they means revealing his and his families secrets...
Isaac is a lose cannon. He is dangerous. He follows Justin's lead, protecting him when needs be. He can do the most damage with ease.
Harper is a social outcast. Her life took a drastic change three years ago after Justin turned his back on her. But now, she could win back the respect of her father and the rest of the town, knocking Justin and his family off their pedestal.
It seems everyone has alterior motives in wanting Violet's friendship. She doesn't know who she could trust, or why they want her on their side.
But she learns the founders are here to protect the town... From a Beast that is trapped in the Gray... Only, maybe the town really needs protecting from the founding families themselves? This book was captivating. I wanted to know what was going on- and you get glimpses into each of the founding children's lives, secrets and minds. You are right there with each of them as they try to figure out what is going on, who they can really trust, and as they come face to face with not only hostile townspeople but the beast himself. It was the perfect read to start off fall. It had mystery, suspense, danger and was even a little creepy. 4 devouring ⭐ out of 5⭐.
