�� the plot:
the characters are featured in the most popular reality show on tv and attend an academy for gifted people [think dancing, singing etc]

the plot was really intriguing to me. this has a bit of omega~verse[alpha, beta, delta, omega, sigma] and light fantasy, as some characters have magical powers.

��the romance:
when i heard this series had 10 mmc, i expected zero to no romantic development but i was pleasantly surprised. this is a slow burn forsure. no smut and no-one got together in this book. i really enjoyed that!! our fmc is slowly getting to know and build a relationship with each man. although, most of them don't really fuck with her rn.


the characters:
okay ngl, i had a hard time getting a good grasp on the men. they switch from 1st name to last name, often so it was confusing to me. the author has character cards on her website with fanart (which i referred to a lot)

�� isobel our fmc, is a sigma so the lowest on the hierarchy. she gets bullied and abused yet she's still so strong. technically she knows her place (ew gross), is shy, lacks confidence, and doesn't stand up for herself but i liked her a lot. i can't wait to see her gain more confidence and her character arc.
��She was different. She had teeth. She bowed, just like the Sigmas were taught to—but she refused to break. She had just used him—an Alpha, a predator—to hide her tears from the cameras, to conceal her momentary weakness.��

��theodore. he's the 1st alpha our sigma be-friends so he gets the most on-page time. he is very sweet, caring and protective. the perfect friend and future boyfriend hehe

i can't wait to learn more about the other mmcs. we get small glimpses of them but I'm salivating for more

❝Kilian wasn’t sunny like Theodore and Niko, moody like Moses and Oscar, stupid-smart like Gabriel and Elijah, or tough like Mikel and Kalen. Maybe he was like Cian, but Cian was wily and guarded his heart behind a ten-foot wall of mystery, which was guarded by a twenty-foot wall of charm. Kilian was softer than the rest of them. He was fucking sensitive, dammit.��


things i didn't like: there are some pacing issues especially towards the end, typos, plot holes, i had a hard time picturing the setting, and i had a really hard time keeping track of all the mmc. but i finished in less than one day soooo i don't really care too much about these things, i'm just nit-picky.
