Sometimes the ones who save us are the ones we need to fear the most.
In a world where dark faeries have stepped in to save the planet from humanity's mistakes, seventeen-year-old December Thorne is nothing but a shadow. Shunned by her peers, bullied at school, and paid a little too much attention by her sleazy foster father, she lives in constant fear and perpetual solitude.
Until the day everything changes.
Offered a scholarship to the prestigious Oberon Academy, December finds herself living in a whole new world. Boundless food, clean clothes, a safe place to sleep, and the potential for true friendship make her new life seem almost too good to be true-but the school has a secret.
The truth is, Oberon Academy isn't just a prep school for society's elite. It's a training ground for a secret race of magical beings no one knows exists. And they're preparing for war.
Filled with fear and denial, December has a choice to make. She can either return to her pathetic life with her dangerous foster parents, try to survive on her own, or make Oberon Academy her home and discover the truth about who, and what she really is.
And that truth could save the world.

Hoewel erg vermakelijk zijn de relaties soms erg abrupt en ongeloofwaardig en voelen ze geforceerd. Met pleegouders die slecht zijn zonder echte rede en mensen die binnen 5 minuten beste vrienden zijn. Het is gewoon slordig uitgewerkt. Het verhaal is een duizend in een dozijn "Assepoester is de uitverkorene en moet de wereld gaan redden". Desalniettemin erg vermakelijk. Dat, of mijn brein is aangetast door quarantaine maatregelen...

Although it started off slow, and is maybe not the most complex book you’ll ever read/listen, it was most certainly enjoyable. I finished it in just two days, unable to put it down. Sometimes you just need a book that takes you on a journey that isn’t complicated, but still manages to make you feel things. That is this book. Can’t wait to start on part 2!
