Saint by E M Snow

Saint (Angelview Academy, #1)

by E.M. Snow

At Angelview Academy, Saint Angelle is considered God.
But don't be fooled by his ridiculous name or that pretty face because Saint? He’s as wicked as they come.
I should know.
I'm the new girl who pissed him off.
The nobody who called out his crew of vicious tyrants.
The mortal who wouldn't bow then and sure as hell won’t now.
Saint swears I'll regret it.
He vows to own every inch of me.
He even promises to make my senior year a living hell.
I don't believe him, though.
Because if angels can fall, so can so-called gods.
And I want to be the one to bring Saint Angelle to his knees.

SAINT is a full-length, 80,000 word new adult/ mature high school romance with enemies-to-lovers and bullying themes. It is not recommended for readers under 17 as it contains dubious situations and triggers that some readers may find offensive. It is NOT a standalone and ends in a cliffhanger.

I’m pretty surprised by how much I liked this book! It’s one of the few “bully romance books” that the guy isn’t grossly abusive. He’s pretty conscious of getting consent, and I appreciate that even though it seems to be a low bar. Either way, except for Liam, all of the (protagonist) characters were pretty entertaining and

Saint
Goofy name but not a goofy man. I've said it once, and I'll say it again, men can be the most emotional people I've ever seen! In this book, it's done pretty well. Like I said earlier, he's pretty concerned about consent, which is good, but he doesn't smack her around. I know, low bar, but still. He's pretty callus but very charismatic and charming The only part that was super out of character was the end half

Mallory
I love me some confident women! I like that Mallory didn't get pushed around and had a reasonable head on her shoulders. Her big secret was so anti-climatic that I actually felt like Saint had a good point. I was also like, "ok??" . She was tough and could hold her own, and being a swimmer myself; I loved that she swam every night.

Liam
Literally the most emotional character I have ever met! SO ANNOYING. I wish he weren't in the book because he feels pretty meaningless.

Everyone else except the best friend and Co was all a hot mess. Talk about sheeple. All in all, it was a good read!
