Montrose Paranormal Academy, Book 1: The Nexis Secret: A Young Adult Urban Fantasy Academy Novel

Wonderful ending to the series. I love the way all the individual characters came back to play and all the old strings got tied up. I knew Bryan was going to cause problems. The visuals that came with the final battle were wonderful I truely hope at least some of them will happen in the actual battle between heaven and hell. All of the characters were rich and brilliant and I find myself hoping that they are all able to find their normal and live beautiful lives with the promise of seeing all their old friends who were lost earlier in the series. ARC copy with voluntary review.

Lucy put off going to the Academy after her brother disappeared. But now he has reached out to her and going to the Academy is the only way she will get answers about his disappearance. She just wasn't expecting the answers she got or the new powers she has developed. Only downside to this book is the main female character is 16. Otherwise I liked it.

The reader is drawn right into this story. Well written, super plot, fantastic characters, and a lot of research has gone Into this story. I could not put it down and I'm pretty sure this will be a binge read.

First off, this was a very, very slow read with lots of extraneous tidbits scattered through it, filling a lot of the page with things not really needed to tell the story. A lot of people like that. I am not one of those people. I wound up gritting my teeth and struggling through page after page that set the tone but did not tell the story. In spite of that I tried to download the "volume zero" and I did buy the box set, mostly because I hope the writing tightens up and if not, I have people who would love it and who are willing to come over and spend a lot of time reading just this kind of writing. It was a good story with too much detail that did not apply to telling the story, and it puts me in a comfort zone level of one out of five stars but talent and the bloated story still would get a five from most people, so I bought the box set and tried to write a review. I went with a three star as the balance point between the one star and five star ratings it could earn. Buy the box set and when you have time read. Just make sure you have time. .

I loved this book! Characters, especially Lucy, really pull you in and you feel what they feel. Lucy starts with a new school and finds out she is more important than originally thought. In addition, this book has a lot of teenage angst and does not leave you hanging at the end.

The plot was good but I feel like the author is dragging this story line out a lot. A lot of unnecessary information was out in to make it a series. I won’t be continuing the series but the first book was okay.

This is a great book! I really enjoyed it. Imagine a world with 3 secret societies and that’s all I’ll say about that. This is fresh material not just another Academy book. Loves ups and downs when you’re sixteen, family ins and outs, ex loser boyfriend stalker and magic. Not regular magic or purple magic or green no this is harnessing the darkness or light and it can be terrifying! No sex, thank you but great kisses! I’m glad the author chose how she wrote this, it’s perfect. Maybe two editing words/wording but seriously don’t miss this book, it is unlike any other you’ve read. Yeah there’s school but it’s more about journeys and self discoveries. Loved it and now going for the next in the series.

I've a good fantasy and this book may all my expectations. There was romance, intrigue, a great heroine you could relate to, and so many twists and turns. I found myself staying up all night trying to figure what's going to happen. It has something for everyone! I can't wait to read the next book of the series!

Loved the characters ...from first couple pages was hooked...Loved the character's. So vivid I wanted to jump in the book and get involved

Awsome story but need to invest time n worth reading

The story takes a few chapters to get into but once your into it it's hard to put down! I discription had me intrigued so I downloaded the book. It was quite what I was expecting but it was really enjoyable none the less. I loved the storyline and was gutted when the book ended. I can't wait for the next part of the book to come out.

I liked it and looking forward to reading more of the lore. However no 16 yr old guy calls a girl they just met the names they did..babe maybe but the cheesy lines were too much.

I like the idea behind this story and it has been an interesting read. The characters are intriguing as is the world they live in.
