Summary
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, 17-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.

loved it.
I am absolutely loving this series. December is an Orphan who finds out she isn't human and accepts an invite to a private school. where not everything as it seems.
Secrets are revealed that December doesn't want to accept but even she can't disagree with what she finds out.
Alot goes on but I love everything about this series.

Be Careful What You Wish For.....
Orphan December just wants to escape notice, bullied, nightmare homelife, can't wait to turn 18 and be free. One angry wish, and everything changes, a new life at Oberon Acadamy, with a friend, a crush and a mentor. She feels betrayed when she finds out everything is not as it appears. I loved the way December starts to find her back bone and learns to trust and fight, and cried at her devestating loss. This book was an emotional rollercoaster and I loved it, I can't wait to start book 2!

Dissapointed
I had big hopes for this book, but was deeply dissapointed. The narrator was weird to listen to. Sounded like she was reading on a bad recording track. It was awful to listen to. The sample was so good, so I had big hopes. I skipped a few chapter at the end. There was no surprising twist or turns.
