What I Read This Week

I’ve been on a bit of a Siobahn Davis kick lately and so I happily took a deep dive into her Rydeville High series this past weekend. Now, I haven’t finished the entire series, but this one’s set up a little different than your usual series. It’s a combination of a trilogy with cliffhanger endings and then jumps to some standalones for the other characters.

When I started the series, it was set up like a reverse harem, so I was sort of expecting that, but it wasn’t even close. But it really made me love those other two male characters, Jackson and Sawyer, so I’m excited to see what their stories are about in the standalones.

One thing to note: This series is a high school bully romance series and when she says bully, she REALLY means it. I’ve only read the trilogy so far, but this is probably the darkest series I have ever read. There are a lot of disturbing scenes and themes that take place throughout the three books.

I mean, book one starts out with our heroine trying to off herself and it just gets darker from there. The payoff, though… The payoff is worth it all. The ending is completely satisfying, even if I do hope that Abby and Kai make an appearance in any and all future standalone books because I can’t get enough of them being happy.

The two of them went through the ringer, more than I would have even imagined. If you’re looking for an emotional read to take you on a wild ride, I definitely recommend this series. I haven’t been let down by Siobahn yet!

Start with book 1:

Cruel Intentions
