Series: Zodiac Academy
Authors: Caroline Peckham & Susanne Valenti
Release Date: July 2019
You have been selected to attend Zodiac Academy, where your star sign defines your destiny.
If you're one of the Fae, elemental magic is in your blood. And apparently it's in ours. As twins born in the month of Gemini, we're a rare breed even in this academy of supernatural a-holes.
Changelings were outlawed hundreds of years ago but I guess our birth parents didn't get the memo. Which means we're totally unprepared for the ruthless world of Fae.
Air. Fire. Water. Earth.
No one has ever harnessed all four of them, until we arrived. And it hasn't made us any friends so far.
As the rarest Elementals ever known, we're already a threat to the four celestial heirs; the popular, vindictive bullies who happen to be some of the hottest guys we've ever seen. It doesn't help that they're the most dangerous beasts in the Academy. And probably on earth too.
Our fates are intertwined, but they want us gone. They've only got until the lunar eclipse to force us out and they'll stop at nothing to succeed.
We never knew we had a birthright to live up to but now that we do, we intend to claim our throne.
We can't expect any help from the faculty when it comes to defending ourselves. So if the dragon shifters want some target practice, the werewolves want someone to hunt or the vampires fancy a snack then we have to be ready. But we've been looking after each other for a long time and fighting back is in our blood.
Today's horoscope: totally screwed.

So this is the first time I am reading Zodiac Academy- after I have read Ruthless Boys multiple times I finally decided to dip my toes into ZA.
I fell in love with the world of Solaria in RB, but Zodiac Academy brings a whole new light to it.
Book one follows Tory and Darcy, twin sisters who were barely surviving in the mortal world, who were then thrust into the world of Solaria- filled with magic, Fae, and heirs. Going from having just the clothes on your back stepping into this new world, to having an inheritance. But with the new world, comes new trials, and the four heirs of the school who will do anything to get them to leave.
So what happens when two teens go head to head against four powerful heirs in a school that is eager to see their demise?
I honestly loved this book. We see Tory & Darcy's introductions to the Fae world, and to the Heirs & other students in the academy. While the pace of the story is slow - it is a good read for the introduction to Solaria & Zodiac Academy. And I enjoyed meeting each of the characters, and even squealed delightedly at some of the interactions (even though I of course have no idea what will happen bc I'm going into this series relatively blind, even avoiding reading the blurbs 😂😂). I cannot wait to see what will happen with each of these characters.
I'm still debating whether I will binge read this series, or try to spread it out throughout the year, but either way I am definitely enjoying them & can't wait to see what the following books bring to these characters (and I will probably eat these words the further I get into this series 😂😂).
5⭐ out of 5⭐.
2🌶️ out of 5🌶️.
