Night School: Fracture - C. J. Daugherty

 

 

 

Night School - Amazon UK

 

 

If you haven't read the first two books then I suggest you don't read this review as it might give away plot points.

 

My review of the first book

 

Book Description

Cimmeria has been more than a school for Allie, it's been a safe haven. But no longer.

A nefarious group - one that is tied up with Allie's family in ways she could barely imagine - is trying to destroy everything Cimmeria stands for.

Even worse, it's clear that somebody they eat with, sleep with, train with is betraying them. There's a spy in Night School. As the paranoia grows and the fights begin, it's not an attack from outside they need to worry about . . .

 

My Thoughts

 

Anyone who has read my other reviews on this series knows I love them, and I couldn't wait for this book to come out.

 

The characters are still fantastic and I find them all very interesting, I am interested in the story but I do have problems with this book.

 

This book just seemed the same as the last...I know we do find out more about the school, Allies past and the character development is still great. Allie did grow and change during this book.

 

But... a lot of the book was finding out information, then the end fight. To me its like an adventure game you go around finding these clues to come to the end boss... which is fine but the last book was the same. As I said in my last book review I was hoping this one would be faster paced with more action.

 

I don't know how long the series will be and I've never read a long series before so maybe this is the norm? this isn't to say this is a bad book. I still got through it really quickly and I will buy the next.

I enjoyed the first two books more and if another comes out I don't want the same thing again.

 

I still enjoyed the book and would recommend if you liked the first two

 

3.5/5

Night School: Legacy

In the last year, Allie's survived three arrests, two breakups and one family breakdown. The only bright point has been her new life at Cimmeria Academy. It's the one place she's felt she belongs. And the fact that it's brought the dreamy Carter West into her life hasn't hurt. . .

But far from being a safe haven, the cloistered walls of Cimmeria are proving more dangerous than Allie could've imagined. The students, and faculty, are under threat and Allie's family - from her mysterious grandma to her runaway brother - are at the centre of the storm.

Allie is going to have to choose between protecting her family and trusting her friends. But secrets have a way of ripping even the strongest relationships apart . . .




Its hard to review the book without spoiling anything, but I won't.

Its been awhile since when I read the first book which I loved, so I thought maybe I might not remember the characters and find it hard to adjust but I didn't have a problem, I dived straight in. I don't know why I started reading it so late in the day as I couldn't put it down, it was just one more chapter to just till 1am, I finally went to bed at 3:30am....I'm so tired and I have work tonight :(.

Anyway this book had romance, drama, friendships, mystery just like the last one. I was impressed, I thought with what was revealed in the last book this one might not be able to match up to that...but it was just as great.

I didn't think this one was as action packed as the last and it has more of a slow build up, the action seemed to be over really quickly, but from the way it ended I think the next book is going to be bursting with it.

Its really the mystery that makes this book for me, I needed to find out more. All the characters hold some amount of mystery to them, and I'm with Allie all the way wanting her to find out who to trust.

The only thing I didn't agree with was the direction Allies relationship goes, all that effort in the last book as well.

I can't wait for the next book which is out on the 15th of August so I'm going to pre-order it.

If you loved the first one, you'll love this one.

I give this one 4/5

Night School - Amazon

This book starts with Allie, she gets arrested again for the 3rd time this year, and her parents are at breaking point and decide to send her to a new school Cimmeria.
At first Allie is angry she doesn't want to be moved away from her friends, but once she starts to adjust to the school and make new friends she thinks maybe she could make a new life here. But something strange is going on.

I loved this book, I really loved this book as soon as I finished I ordered the 2nd one off Amazon and I'm so happy the 3rd is coming out in august.
I really liked Allie and I can understand her acting out, and the fact she suffers panic attacks makes her a vulnerable character. The school is described so well I could imagine it all, and had a fantastic picture of what it all looks like.
You really feel what Allie is going through trying to figure out who she can trust, what are the kids doing in the night school? well I can tell you I was thrown around, 100% convinced I knew what was going on and I was wrong. I was so sure I knew who she could trust, but once again wrong.
This book was so exciting, I refused to put it down, I needed to know what was going on. I'm sure I only stopped reading to cook and eat.
Loved the characters love the relationships they have, loved finding out bits of the mystery as I went along.
I thought the book was really fast paced but not so much you don't know what was going on, the story had a great flow and didn't linger on anything for longer than necessary. I have to admit there were a couple of points where I couldn't remember who one of the characters were but I really don't care as if you can't tell I love this book.

For me this was 5/5

Now I'm off to catch up with house work (ironing pile isn't getting smaller by itself), I might even speak to some real people....I spent so long in Cimmeria yesterday the real world is a bit of a let down :p
