Book Review – The Culling Trials – Shadowspell Academy 1 by K.F. Breene & Shannon Mayer

This is a new magical series by Breene and Mayer. This story takes shape around a magical academy that forces children into attendance. When the summons arrives for her younger brother, again, his sister Wild takes his place, pretending to be a boy. The beginning of this series allows Wild to see the world as it really is, and it’s nothing like her rural upbringing. I loved Wild’s sheer strength and stubbornness along this wild ride (pun intended). I’m glad I waited the song to begin this series, as I plan to devour the remaining 5 in short order. I am embarrassed to admit that this has been on my TBR since 2019. If you haven’t picked this up, do it now. (5/5 rating)
