Summary
No matter what I say， both the Arcane Authorities and the Arcane Council deny any witch involvement in the kidnapping and slaughter of the shifters and vampires。
It’s total bullsh*t。 I know what I saw， and I’ll prove it。
But just when I think I’m onto something—disaster strikes。 A student is found dead on Academy grounds。 Drained of blood。 A gnarly bite mark in her neck。
Naturally， all fingers point to my familiars。 I could understand why they’d be obvious suspects; except they were with me when it happened。 And it couldn’t have been the dangerously sexy vamp who’s been visiting me after dark， either right？ Draven wouldn’t do that。 I’m sure of it。
So， then who？ Why？
One thing becomes terrifyingly clear after the second body is found—the longer we take to figure it out—the more students will wind up dead。
NOTE: This series was previously published under the same series title of Arcane Arts Academy however， these versions have been altered to include lots of bonus content and all-new chapters from the guys' points of view！

Good readLooking forward to the next book。 This one ended rather abruptly。 I'm hoping we get more relationship progress in the next book。 Good readLooking forward to the next book。 This one ended rather abruptly。 I'm hoping we get more relationship progress in the next book。 。。。more

Approximately 3。5 stars。 Needs some editing here and there。 Also， does anyone else see the word ‘haughty’ used here and there throughout the series in completely unrelated scenes？ Or is there some underlying meaning I’m not getting？ It’s either that or the author doesn’t realise the dictionary meaning of the word ‘haughty’。

Ok， this isn't just a nod to HP anymore， this is more like re-telling。When it became clear （pretty early on） that the story wasn't going to be concluded in this book all I could think was I just want to be done with it。At this point it reads more like a patch-job of a bunch of other stories or like I said a re-telling of HP of sorts 。。。 full of plot holes， editorial issues， lack of character development plus reveals/surprises that fail to well。。。 surprise。I keep having to remind myself that they Ok， this isn't just a nod to HP anymore， this is more like re-telling。When it became clear （pretty early on） that the story wasn't going to be concluded in this book all I could think was I just want to be done with it。At this point it reads more like a patch-job of a bunch of other stories or like I said a re-telling of HP of sorts 。。。 full of plot holes， editorial issues， lack of character development plus reveals/surprises that fail to well。。。 surprise。I keep having to remind myself that they're teenagers and therefore are supposed to be acting reckless， stupid， selfish and immature。 Note to self: I'm simply too old for YA books unless they're really well written and original （neither of which this is）。 。。。more

2。5-3 Stars。 Honestly I'm still intrigued by this series， I just feel like dang we are on book 3 here。 Shouldn't we have a little bit more answers by now。 The reveals are really slow and the questions just keep pouring in。 I still like our FMC just fine， though， she does miss a lot of obvious stuff and it bugs me at times。 Important， flag raising， info will just roll across the page and she won't even pick up on it even if it does actually raise flags for her。。 she just gets distracted quite eas 2。5-3 Stars。 Honestly I'm still intrigued by this series， I just feel like dang we are on book 3 here。 Shouldn't we have a little bit more answers by now。 The reveals are really slow and the questions just keep pouring in。 I still like our FMC just fine， though， she does miss a lot of obvious stuff and it bugs me at times。 Important， flag raising， info will just roll across the page and she won't even pick up on it even if it does actually raise flags for her。。 she just gets distracted quite easily。 As far as the relationship with the guys。。 I'm still a little on the meh fence。 There seemed to be a lot of insta and then not much follow up to really build up what I would call "real" feelings。At this point， I'm just not sure this is really my jam。 It's interesting enough to want to know what is happening but I just feel like the characters and the reader just keep getting distracted by "filler。" I probably going to shelve this for a while and see how I feel later。 。。。more

5 stars for Of Beast and Blood by Elena Lawson。 This is book three in the Arcane Arts Academy Series。 These books are just getting better and better。 I think I might just be addicted to the characters and their story。 We have Elena，Adrian，Cal and now Draven。 I think Draven might just be my favorite but we will have to wait and see。 When I read I can normally tell what or where the author is heading with the story but with this one I honestly have no idea and I LOVE IT。 Students are being murdere 5 stars for Of Beast and Blood by Elena Lawson。 This is book three in the Arcane Arts Academy Series。 These books are just getting better and better。 I think I might just be addicted to the characters and their story。 We have Elena，Adrian，Cal and now Draven。 I think Draven might just be my favorite but we will have to wait and see。 When I read I can normally tell what or where the author is heading with the story but with this one I honestly have no idea and I LOVE IT。 Students are being murdered and Cal and Adrian seem to be suspects or maybe it was Draven。 Be warned grab some tissues you will need them 。 I was heartbroken for Harper at the end of this book。 I am ready for Harper and her harem of hotties to add some steam to their relationship but it hasn’t really happened yet。 Book four is calling my name now， I need to know what is going to happen next 。。。more

All the feels 😩Man this one ended on such a heart wrencher！ Seriously though， this book was great！ I love learning more about Harper and her ever growing gang that tackle some serious sh:t。

Of Beasts and BloodStubbornness is the theme of this book， as well as courage， bonding， love， friendship and walking a thin line of family madness。

Still good！So I initially really enjoyed this series however this book was so short。 It felt like so much was missing， almost like half a book。 It was very disjointed。 At times it was really hard to follow who was talking。 It's a shame as it has some brilliant potential and I'm relieved it's finally looking like it's going to be a rh but still zero steam。 Still good！So I initially really enjoyed this series however this book was so short。 It felt like so much was missing， almost like half a book。 It was very disjointed。 At times it was really hard to follow who was talking。 It's a shame as it has some brilliant potential and I'm relieved it's finally looking like it's going to be a rh but still zero steam。 。。。more

I want more depth So another murderer caught。 But virtually no info about them。 The story is at surface level and I wish there was more depth to it。

Harper and the men face more emotionally challenging issues in this book。 From facing cutting ties to building their relationship to fighting for truth and justice。 The world is becoming more dangerous and complicated for all of them and Harper must try to figure out how to navigate these changes。 The world is still precise throughout all the books with no discrepancy and the characters are becoming more intricate the longer the story goes on。 It keeps you intrigued without the loss of interest。 Harper and the men face more emotionally challenging issues in this book。 From facing cutting ties to building their relationship to fighting for truth and justice。 The world is becoming more dangerous and complicated for all of them and Harper must try to figure out how to navigate these changes。 The world is still precise throughout all the books with no discrepancy and the characters are becoming more intricate the longer the story goes on。 It keeps you intrigued without the loss of interest。 They say that some series the longer they go on the less precise and interesting it can become。 I can assure you that is NOT the case with this series and I cant wait to get my hands on the next book in the series。 。。。more

Something about this series is addictive。 I couldnt put it down。 Still ignoring Elias， he’s by far the most boring of the guys。 And absolutely love Draven。 Cannot wait for book 4 especially after that mini cliffhanger

This was an excellent third installment in Harper’s story。 So many lies， betrayals and secrets are brought to light。 I couldn’t put this book down and the ending was absolutely heartbreaking。 Can’t wait for the next book。

Fantastic read but sadly have to wait now for the next in the series。

SadI’m done with this。 I should have known from the series title， “reverse harem”， that this girl would be a disappointment。 Also， The plethora of f-bombs and other swear words along with the poor editing just grated on my last nerve。 It’s sad really， because the story is intriguing。 I will not be reading any more from this author。 “Vulgarity is no substitute for wit”。 —Downton Abby。

Totally addictive， I couldn’t put this down。 I love how Harper’s relationship blossoms with the change in dynamic after Cal & Adrian are removed from their pack。 Also the knowing and acceptance of her relationship between not only Adrian & Cal but also with Elias。 The character development of Draven has me wanting more of him。 I feel like there’s so much to his character we’re yet to find out。Definitely need the next book！

Ugh！！！I need more now！ Why isn’t the next one out yet！ Such great characters， and back stories coming to play。 The steamy scenes finally made it to light even though they weren’t much。 Thank you for adding the vampire to her group of men！ So many questions yet in fact even more now。 Was he a radical or the council she suspects。

This book is a slow slow burn that ends in a inferno。 The author takes the time to build the relationship between the characters and it gives us much need information and lays the ground work for what I'm sure will be a exhilarating fourth book。 I can not wait to read the fourth book and see the true Harper when she becomes all powerful。 This book is a slow slow burn that ends in a inferno。 The author takes the time to build the relationship between the characters and it gives us much need information and lays the ground work for what I'm sure will be a exhilarating fourth book。 I can not wait to read the fourth book and see the true Harper when she becomes all powerful。 。。。more

Rating: 4。5Dang。 That ending。 I sat and cried for a hot minute。 They saved the last 2， but still some of the main questions are still out there。 I cannot believe that the author killed him off， I want to know what he knew about the Moon Room， or whatever it was called。 I also， want to know more about Draven！ I love him， Adrian and Cal。 I’m liking Elias more， but no where near as much as the other three。 Book 4 needs to come out quickly！
