Year two
Ah this books was painful at times. All the heartbreak! And I absolutely loved it. Asher and maddi went through a lot in this book but they also learned a lot about themselves. I’m sure book three is going to get even more crazy and I can’t wait to read it.

SO. MANY. EMOTIONS. I felt everything poor maddi felt. I did have an inkling it wouldn’t be the end of Asher. I was distraught when he died but knew. And then he came back and was a royal dbag. Something had to give. But I’m still leery of Connor started the next one immediately. The year of Purple was AN AMAZING book! Lots of twists and turns!!!

I was sobbing and then there were times of laughter. What an incredible plot. I’m so excited for how the next book turns out. Love this.

Look ... I love Jaymin’s books. Several of the series I have read, I have enjoyed. With that said I will finish this one only because I started it.
Maddison’s personality quirks carry over from Book 1 and I continue to find her aggravating as hell. Furthermore, not sure if Jasmin’s thesaurus broke down or whomever edited her book was being lazy? I admit I am a book SNOB but how can you not be driven crazy by word overuse. And I mean OVERUSE. What the hell happened?! Every frickin’ two pages someone was talking “softly”. That damnable word popped up so much that it now almost rivals my hatred for the words “moist” and “groan” (don’t as on that one). All in all, this series is sinking fast ... just like Atlantis.

I loved it for what it was.. 3.5
I do not know what it is about magic and academies but i cannot get enough. I most likely will be reading more of this genre before the end of the year seeing as how I have so much more free time now. In this book there were definite glaring flaws ( the sometimes cliche and stiff dialogue between characters, the macho territorial guy BS, sentence typos and never ending talk of FAMILY and being HOME when the MC was around her man or the ocean, )
ramblings to remember the plot for the next book

how seemingly normal it was that ash and Maddison were turned into their true forms which just so happens to be 2/3 god or whole god or god children idk and they looked no different than before accept a little more golden...ramblings to remember the plot for the next book
