So I don't know about you guys but I /have signed up for Bookbub. If you have not heard of it then let me tell you a quick overview of it. Its a site that you tell them what books you like. Then they will email you everyday with a list off books (about 5 of them or so) that are on sale or free on kindle. So thanks to them I downloaded the free kindle book called The Academy. I read it one night when I couldn't sleep and now I am hooked on the series.
The Academy is a series with the first book called Introductions. In it you meet the main character Sang. Its a first person perspective, so its all from her view. Sang is a 15 year old girl who has not had a normal childhood. Her father is an electrical engineer that is never home. Her older sister Marie and her do not talk much. Then their is her mother who keeps both her children locked up in the house as much as possible. She constantly tell Sang if she leaves or talks to strangers that she will be raped or murdered. Everyday she remind Sang that the world is a horrible place because of this our poor main character has never had any friends. As school she would just keep to her self. So after moving to a new town, Sang in the start of the book has decide she has to experience the out side world just once. To be away from home for the night. She plans on spending the night in a house that is getting built just down from her. Its when she leaves she meets Kota. Thanks to Kota he introduces her to his family from The Academy. Kota and his family shows our girl what real family and friends are.
I can't help have a crush on all the boys in this book. Sang is a character whom I adore. She is beautiful but doesn't realize it. She is honest and wears her heart on her sleeve. If you are looking for an easy read with character that are easily enjoyed I recommend this book. Its free on amazon right now so it worth a try.
