I thought this book had wonderful content and beautiful characters development and style. I love the characters and theme of everything in the plot and the timing and pacing of the book and the world building and setting of the story in every chapter. I recommend highly to everyone of all ages. This book is great if looking for something new and exciting. Or looking to try something new in information and plot. The main characters are great and beautiful writing by the author. And audience will truly love them. I think book is one of favorite I have ever read. I can’t choose between characters I love them all

Blood & Secrets offers a promising premise, with its intriguing use of the amnesia trope that has the potential for a gripping storyline. However, it didn't manage to hook me right away, and the writing style left much to be desired.

I found the narrative confusing and felt it lacked the emotional depth and immersive worldbuilding necessary to connect with the characters or fully engage with the story.

That said, its fast-paced plot makes it an easy read for those who enjoy action-driven books. Ultimately, while it has some interesting ideas, the book wasn’t a good fit for me personally.

Blood & Secrets is a thrilling ride through a supernatural academy filled with secrets, danger, and steamy tension. The main character’s struggle with her identity and powers had me turning the pages way past bedtime, and the love triangle? Messy in the best way. I liked how the story kept me guessing—who to trust, what was real, and how it would all explode when the blood moon rose. I really enjoyed the mix of mystery and magic, and I’m already itching for the next book.

I would like to express my appreciation to NetGalley and the publisher for providing a free ebook copy in exchange for an honest review.

This book is now available, having already been released. The story is a dramatic, action-packed tale featuring vampires, fae, werewolves, and hybrids, which immediately captured my interest.

The romance aspects are skillfully interwoven, making it difficult to put the book down. The dilemma remains: will you support Team Kai, Jacob, or Lucien? The characters are outstanding, with Lucien radiating as the fated vampire, Kai the best friend turned lover werewold ,and Riven being the mysterious fae prince keep you on your toes right up until the very end.

Blood & Secrets is sure to become your new fixation. I strongly recommend reading it. I look forward to the release of Book #2. 🖤🌒🩸

Y’ALL. This book is straight-up drama with fangs, claws, and dark fae sass. I was hooked the second our girl woke up in creepy-hot Nightveil Academy with no clue who she was—but like, same, because I kept yelling “WHO IS SHE?!” every other chapter. The boys? Dangerous and delicious. The secrets? Juicier than a forbidden fruit. If you’re into dark magic, broody boys, and not knowing who’s gonna kiss you or kill you, Blood & Secrets is your new obsession. Go read it. Go now. 🖤🌒🩸

Thank you to the Author and NetGalley for allowing me to read this amazing book-Which is available now.

This fast paced dark fantasy is a must!!!!!!!!!!!!!

We follow Everly after she losses her memory-The only thing that made me mad about this book is that I wish I had three guys in love with me.

But this was a fun read and I cannot wait for the next book.

Blood and Secrets by Serenity Wylde is a great fantasy novel. The story takes place in a supernatural academy with werewolves, vampires, witches, fae, and hybrids. Everly wakes up in this Nightveil Academy with little memories after she has been assaulted by unknown assailants. She has vague recollections of the people she is to live and go to classes with, but she also has a familiarity with them that she cannot explain. She is not sure who to trust and why she was attacked but she is determined to figure it out no matter the cost.
The story is a quick read that is enjoyable. It is very young reader friendly as it has no spice but lots of romantic undertones. I loved the whole mix of supernatural beings and their relationships with each other. It did have a lot of repetitive writing which indicates that this is the first book written by this author and maybe not edited enough, because if someone rolled their shoulders one more time, I was about to scream. However, the plot was exciting and I am greatly interested in seeing where the series goes from here.

Thank you to NetGalley and Bookbuzz for the advanced copy.

This book has me tied up, the plot is fantastic, tropes are all there, enemies to lovers love triangle to die for and a whole host of supernaturals to temp your dark side.
Like others have said- Sadly the writing style let the book down for me, there just wasn't enough depth and description in the world building and the characters didn't get enough detail and growth. I wish this was a first draft because emy god it could be one hell of a rival to zodiac acadamy.
It's still worth the read because it's dark and delicious and a good cliff hanger so pick it up and see what you think. At the moment it seems I may have guessed how this will play out so here's to book 2 and seeing if I guessed correctly or not. 🤩

This is a very quick read for romantasy YA fans of dark academia. There was no spice, which was actually refreshing. It didn't get beyond a couple of kisses.

I enjoyed it, but it was a bit too quick with a lack of worldbuilding. I do feel that much more could have been done to bulk up the novel by expanding on the lore that our FMC was learning as she overcame her amnesia.

I liked all of the MMCs. It'll be interesting to see how this goes in future books and what decision our FMC makes between the three different men.

I liked the book overall, and I will read the next one.

3.25 stars

3 1/2 STARS!!!
Blood & Secrets throws you right into the Nightveil Academy world and hooks you from the very beginning. Everly wakes with no memory of what happened to her, but those around her seem to know what happened and know a lot more than what they are willing to share. There seems to be history between Everly and Lucien (vampire), Kai (exiled werewolf) and Riven (fae) and some of it is explained in the story but there seems to be too much familiarity between the characters and not enough background/past is given to really explain it. The story was good, but the author's writing was a bit confusing at times. Especially when it came to Headmistress locking up Everly. If that was her reasoning the whole time, she should have done that from the beginning because it made no sense to do it then. There were a few other things that bothered me, but I will say that it comes to this story, the mystery part of it had me hooked and kept me interested. Everything was a mystery! Then there were secrets, danger, threats, regrets, magic, power, reincarnation, curses, power plays and more. The ending left me curious to know what will happen in the next book since this one ends with a cliffhanger. I have a feeling I know how things will play out with Everly, Lucien, Kai and Riven since we have already seen a bit of it in this story but I'm excited to know if I'm right.

Thank you to NetGalley and the publisher for providing a free ebook copy in exchange for an honest review. This book has already been released! IT’S AVAILABLE NOW!

I love dark academia/magical academy/romantasy books! I thought this one was really interesting and it grabbed my attention from page 1! Blood & Secrets is a fast-paced and highly entertaining read. Everly wakes up in Nightveil Academy without all of her memories and she needs to figure out fast who she really is, who she can trust, and what the truth is.

I love that this book has vampires, fae, werewolves, and hybrids! Oh, and the romance aspects… the tension is so delicious in this love…square! I would have liked some more depth to the characters though because they are a little bit flat. I’d have also liked a little bit more time spent on world building as well. I just feel like I needed more depth and weight overall. That being said, the plot is fantastic, the story is engrossing and fun, and it was such an enjoyable read!

I definitely recommend Blood & Secrets if you’re in the mood for a quick, captivating, and yummy romantasy/dark academia read!! I can’t wait for book 2!
