    About this audiobook

    After their parents' shocking revelation about their fae heritage and an attack on their lives, the McDonald twins are forced to hide out deep in the Swiss Alps at Riverdale Academy, a secret vampire slayer training facility. And with no way to contact their vampire boyfriends for rescue, they're going to have to play nice with the locals.

    But when Sunny starts acting strange, Rayne realizes that there's more to fear at Riverdale than getting staked by the student body-leading to a showdown in Fairyland that may cost the twins their lives.

    Mari Mancusi

    Mari Mancusi always wanted a dragon as a pet. Unfortunately the fire insurance premiums proved a bit too large and her house a bit too small—so she chose to write about them instead. Today she works as an award-winning young adult author and freelance television producer, for which she has won two Emmys. When not writing, Mari enjoys goth clubbing, cosplay, watching cheesy (and scary) horror movies, and her favorite guilty pleasure—videogames. A graduate of Boston University, she lives in Austin, Texas with her husband and young daughter.

      Yes, this review is out of order. I'm sorry my friends! I'll post my Bad Blood (Blood Coven Vampires #4) later on tonight or early tomorrow!

      Once again my friends, I was hooked from the very first page. As with all the installments in this series, you can pick up the book and instantly be up to speed with what Rayne and Sunny are currently up to! Mari has a great habit of reviewing earlier events, so that no matter how long it has been since you read the last installment, you'll remember right away where you left off with these awesome and crazy twins. If you'll recall my last review, I missed the action that usually ensues in these books. This one definitely sated my action need, and then some. I'm in love!

      In Night School there is yet another new supernatural being added in. Yes, yes I know. You're thinking, vampires, werewolves, what else IS there? Oh but my friends, there's more. If you've read the synopsis above you now know that Sunny and Rayne face their most difficult challenge yet. FAIRIES. The way that Mari Mancusi built her fairies and their world was fantastic! I won't give too much away, it's too much fun to find out for yourself. I'll leave you instead to ponder over why these stereotypical glittery and flitting beings are so dangerous. What I will say is that I loved their names! Cracked me up to no end. Oh and the ending? Once again I'm waiting with bated breath for the next book.

      I think by now you've realized that I'm partial to the parts of this series that are narrated by Rayne. Let me tell you why. She's feisty, she takes on any challenge, and she loves her family with such a deep emotion that she is willing to put herself in harms way to protect them. Sunny is like the yin to Rayne's yang, and without both of them I don't think the books would be half as enjoyable. Still, I'm partial to Rayne's snark and wit. It's true. Thus why this book made me laugh out loud, and subsequently have people stare at me on the bus. Don't read this book in public.

      Look, if you haven't been reading my other reviews and don't yet know how I feel about this series, let me break it down plain and simple. I LOVE THESE BOOKS. The humor is smart, the characters are amazingly well written, and there is just enough tips of the hat to pop culture to keep you giggling. (References to Twilight anyone?) The point is that I should have by now convinced to you to read these books. They're well worth your time trust me!

      It felt like Mancusi was trying too hard to keep the series going. Vampires/Vampire Slayer and also a Fairy?
    • 4/5

      I've always loved Rayne's POV as much as I love Mari's spontaneous ability to make things more interesting by the end of the books with another cliffhanger. This is no True Blood season 3.(Despite Sookie and Rayne WAS the fae royalty)



      Mari had decided that she's finished with the romance genre and head on to adventure. I've enjoyed the series from the start and Mari's attempt to trying to bond with her readers from facebook community is always a welcome. She's by far the most interactive YA authors and this made her fans loved her most. (the pressure is on!)



      For the last book, Rayne's parents has a revelation that they were full-blooded faerie and Sunshine was the heiress of the throne. But now more fae assasins (with weird Disney name) are targeting the family and both of the girls was moved to the vampire slayer schoolwhere all of them hated vampires (Q: Rayne = a vampire/faerie/teenage vampire slayer). Then there was Night School, where all the elites of the school went and never returned. And then it all started when Sunshine was kidnapped...



      Overall, I enjoyed the book so much that it always crack me up especially the names and characters. Disney is heavy in this book as the faeries reflects our world's children's facination over disney characters and beginning to forget the fairy tales before. like faerie god mother who changed into cinderella's faerie godmother which is more like the explanation given in Percy Jackson series about Olympus moved to America as the world's superpower)



      p/s: I finally got the package of Vampire-in-Training. Its in my wallet :P

      Review:I believe this has been my favorite of the series for sure. I felt there was much more going on, an evil plan in the making, tricksters at their best, and so many funny antics. I was laughing out loud many times during this read. I loved this book and the series keeps getting funnier and more serious at the same time. Long story short :Rayne and Sunny find out their parents are fairies and their entire lives have been a ruse, running from the fairy courts. Now the fairies are after Sunny to be the next fairy queen. So to keep the fairies from find Sunny, the twins are rushed off to a slayer school in the Swiss Alps. It happens to be a very secluded very guarded boarding school. The least of their problems, no wireless electronics…. The worst of their worries, no synthetic blood for Rayne. Not only are the twins having trouble adapting, the school is up to something and it’s about to come to surface with Rayne right smack in the middle.My thoughts :Ok so there are multiple storylines going in this installment and I liked that. Sunny and Rayne start off with the same objective but when things get a little hairy… Rayne finds herself having to deal with one emergency after another. This book was for sure nonstop action and fun. When I first read the fairy part back in Bad Blood at the end, I wasn’t sure where this would lead. When I started Night School, I wasn’t sure I was going to like the new direction. Somewhere in the middle of the story it all just fell into place and made sense. Fairies… why not. The humor an irony of it beats all hands down.There wasn’t much Sunny in this book, she had her fill in the last book. Rayne dominated and I really started to like her in this book. For once she showed me she cared more about her sister than her own needs and desires. She started to really kick butt and embrace her vampire slayer/vampire powers. She did make a few mistakes that were just stupid but easily understood. She finds her way out of her own mess with the help of Jareth of course and its all good in the end.I want to make a note about the fairyland world building, it was crazy and silly but oh so much fun. I just couldn’t help but laugh my way through it. I mean really no one else could have pulled it off the way Mari Mancusi did. Loved It!I felt there was also quite a bit more action scenes in this story and that kept me on my toes. Everyone was involved in fighting even Sunny and Rayne’s parents. The book is of course fast paced and a quick read like the other and I really can’t wait to read on in the series.In the endI am still loving this series!
    • 5/5
      Another great book in the Blood Coven series. I'm seriously enjoying the twists and turns of this series and can't wait to read more. I dislike waiting so long between books! I'm just glad that I started reading this series and can't wait to see what happens to Sunny and Rayne next.

      Rayne and Sunny are forced to hide out in a creepy boarding school for vampire slayers that is supposed to protect them from the fairies who are trying to find them. However, they seem to have jumped out of the pan and into the fire. Rayne has been left with no blood supply (cause no one but Sunny knows she is a vampire) and when a hunky slayer starts paying attention to her, well nature, um super-nature, takes it course and Rayne gets her first taste of human blood. She also finds out that things are definitely not what they seem at the school. Barely escaping with her life, Rayne now has to rejoin her blood coven to save Sunny from becoming the Queen of the Fairies. (Yeah, its complicated)Hmmm, I have to admit that this was not my favorite in the series. I always have a bit of trouble when fairies are involved. But I am warming up to the idea and their Fairyland which is really more Fairytale Land. I always enjoy the girls though. Rayne is the narrator of this one and she is always snarky and fun. This book set up the next which sounds like it will be an adventure so I will definitely be reading it when it comes out. Hoping for more vamp/slayer action and less pixie dust.
