Review: 
Wow! I enjoyed this one definitely something different!
I haven't read anything like this before but oh man once I started this book I literally couldn't put it down! This book has murder, romantic interest, and action! It has it all! November is sent to a secret society-type boarding school after her dad said that her aunt was in trouble, but this is not your average school with average classes. There are classes from archery and poison to dagger throwing. So while November is completely in the dark, one of the rules of the school is that you cannot tell personal information. November is trying to figure out the rules and everything, she sneaks out one night to meet with Ash, to learn more about the history of the families. While sneaking back to her room she stumbled upon a body, and while she is afraid to get caught there because the school's rules are an eye for an eye she hurries back to her room leaving the body where it was.
This started the investigation with Ash, his sister (November's roommate), and November looking into the murder and who would be behind it.
I have to say this is an action-packed book that is worth the read! While it is YA, don't let that deter you from picking it up because it is an amazing unique book!

My Review of Sex Cult Nun by Faith Jones

​ Title: Sex Cult Nun  Author: Faith Jones  Published: November 30, 2021  Published by: William Morrow Books  Genre: True Crime/Memior  Pages: 400  Rating: ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️  Review:  I'm giving this book 5 stars. The reason for the five stars is the rawness and the transparency of this author that she went into the details that she knew would bother a lot of people, she went to the deepest and darkest times in her life and she put them on blast. She blasted her truth from the rooftops for not only herself but for everyone that is not able to share their truth.  This book has an abundance of disturbing and disgusting content and a lot of underage sexual abuse and rape. That is the part that is hard to read about, but her courage to share it and write it is very eye-opening. I did not agree with he whole sharing and polygamy but with each their own. I know I would not want to share my spouse with another person. The whole child abuse and sexual abuse...
