Half-Blood

Author: Jennifer L. Armentrout

Publisher: Bloom Books | July 18, 2017

Description: Seventeen-year-old Alex and her mother have spent years on the run from the Covenant, a school where the pure descendants of gods hone their powers and half-mortal teens like Alex train to kill daimons for them. But when her mom is murdered by daimons and she has nobody else to turn to, Alex finds herself back at the Covenant, where she has two options: become a servant for the pures or work twice as hard as everyone else to catch up in her training.

The second option seems like an easy choice, but everything gets complicated when pure-blood Aiden volunteers to be her personal trainer. Because not only is Aiden gorgeous, but he also understands Alex in a way she's never experienced before. Unfortunately, relationships between pures and half-bloods are strictly forbidden.

But falling for Aiden isn't her biggest problem. As she learns the true reason her mother whisked her away from the Covenant and daimons close in on the school, she must fight to stay alive…even if it's her fault those around her are dropping dead.

Book description is by Bloom Books.

Isa's Picks: I love reading about the romance of Alex and Aiden, how it's forbidden. I live for the star-crossed lovers type beat. I also like how it talks about the discrimination of half-bloods, how they're looked down on because they aren't fully a Demi god. I love how Alex isn't afraid of standing up to her "betters". She wants to prove that even though she isn't a pureblood, it doesn't mean she is inferior to them.
