BLOOD LINE ACADEMY

BLOOD LINE ACADEMY

Book 1

A Nephilim, a demon and a mage walk into a psychiatric hospital. This isn’t a joke. There’s no punch line. My name is Alessia Hastings. Welcome to my personal hell.

My weekly visit to Nanna’s psychiatric hospital ends with me in a celestial jail cell. Now an impossibly gorgeous Nephilim with a face I want to kiss, and an attitude I want to punch, tells me I’m not quite human.

Too bad they can’t figure out exactly what I am. Only that my magic is dangerous. Which means I’ve earned a one way invitation to Bloodline Academy: A secret magical school that teaches the next generation of supernatural monsters how to go bump in the night.

You’d think the resident Fae mean girls, the shifters, and bloodthirsty vamps would be my biggest problem at the Academy. But it’s the strange voices in my mind that truly scare me. Because Hastings women have always heard voices, and the ones in my head are telling me there’s something worse out there hunting me.

Finishing this semester alive is going to be treacherous. Not making it through could mean the end of the world. No pressure, right

"Oh. My. Words!!
Talk about a great introduction to the writing of a new (to me) author! Bloodline Academy has a little bit - and then some - of everything to satisfy readers of all genres: action, danger, romance, tried-and-true friendship, education (that's for the teacher in me), supernatural vibes, etc.
The central character, Alessia - or Lex as she prefers to be called, is a girl who finds herself fending for herself on the "mean" streets of Melbourne, Australia after the only relative she has, her grandmother is committed to a psychiatric hospital. For 6 years Lex has braved the world on her own while keeping tabs on her Nanna hoping that something or someone will be able to break the mysterious and unidentified problem that holds her Nana's mind. One fateful day, Lex makes the mistake of touching Nanna, and that is the beginning of a whole new chapter in the life of a teenager with so many questions about herself but so few answers."

Of course, there's more to it than that! This is a very fun and exciting read. It does seem to be in the same vein as Vampire Academy, but definitely does not steal anything from it. Lan Chan has her very high stakes way of writing that you don't find in most YA novels. Very intense action.

I really enjoyed getting to know these characters. They are interesting and unique. Lex is so stark and forthright, I'm surprised she doesn't get smacked around for it. Since she is new to the Bloodline Academy school, she's obviously and outsider, but it doesn't end there. She never knew anything about magical beings before the story began and she's been a homeless teenager for a few years upon entering, too. Talk about a night and day difference between herself and the rest of the students!
