Do you love magical academies... and discovering strange powers you never knew you had? Then you'll love the Darkblood Academy series by G.K. DeRosa. What a great series! I stumbled upon this series while doing research into the burgeoning YA Academy genre. (Yes! It's really a thing!) The Darkblood Academy series is a great example of the new academy fiction phenomenon. G.K. DeRosa weaves an exciting tale of magical adventure, PG-13 romance, and coming of age lessons into a powerful story that keeps you fully engaged. I didn't want to put these books down! They're so much fun! And there's definitely a good amount of character and story depth, too. I could really relate to the main character. Luna starts out as a normalish teen struggling to get out of the New York foster system after some family drama. Then she's thrust into a new world of supernaturals due to a long lost father. She's told she may or may not have magical powers. But I won't spoil the rest for you. The Darkblood Academy series is the ultimate escape to a fun new world. Lucky for you... the final book in the series released last month! Now you can read the entire series. Start to finish! I definitely recommend the whole 4 book series! You might end up reading it straight through! What are you reading? Got any books you want to recommend for my next read? This author is always looking for the next great book!

Barbara Hartzler is the debut author of The Nexis Secret—the story a girl with a gift to see the unseen world of angels. And the two secret societies vying for The Seer's allegiance. The Nexis Secret is inspired by Barbara’s college experiences and peppered with anecdotes from her teen missions trip to New York City. She’s always wanted to write, not necessarily about angels, but the idea was too good to pass up. As a former barista and graphic designer, she loves all things sparkly and purple and is always jonesing for a good cup of joe. Archives
