Book: Bizarre Bonds by Eva Chase
Reviewed by Booksbystarlightandshadows
Rating: 4/5
Peri is such a sweetheart; I'm really enjoying her development as although she is still such an earnest character she is learning how nuanced emotions can be and its not all black and white. Her relationships with the MMCs are progressing swiftly but one in particular felt a little rushed after the events of book one. The romance does take a back seat to the plot which I didn't mind but I did feel at certain parts I had seen Rollick more than Mirage. I'm a big Rollick fan though so I'm always here for one of his cameos!
The rift plotline didn't grab me as much as the academy aspect and I did miss it a little. After the bullying in book one, I think Peri was more than due some apologies from the student body and would have liked to have seen that play out with her mates in tow. I was also really surprised at the off page dispatch of a certain character; I'm hoping for a comeback as it was very conveniently handled...
I received an advance review copy for free, and I am leaving this review voluntarily.
My interpretation of the star system;
3 stars - I enjoyed it; would read the author again
4 stars - I really liked it; I am invested and definitely want more from this author/series
5 stars - I loved it; I engaged with this book completely until I finished it and it is one I will re-read
