Instead she kept secrets with no explanation and it caused her conflict with Mason and her sorority sisters, even though at the start of the book there was a whole passage where she talked about feeling as though she can tell Mason anything. This was miscommunication taken off the scale because the book didn’t even attempt to justify why Vivi didn’t just… answer questions. Half of the conflict in Vivi’s section of the book was entirely caused by her refusing to explain things or answer questions. In The Monarchs, she seemed to lean back into her elitist beliefs with no hesitation. In The Ravens I loved the way that Scarlett was challenging the way that she was raised and her family’s beliefs. This hypocrisy is beyond irritating to me, and it made me less interested in Scarlett’s romantic arcs. In The Ravens, Jackson has another love interest and Scarlett gets annoyed and jealous again – even though she’s flirting with a new character and agreeing to dates. In book one, she gets annoyed at Mason and Vivi for kissing – even though she was trying to date Jackson. But the way Scarlett acts with her love interests? So fucking annoying. I love that, in principle, and the budding friendship between Vivi and Scarlett in The Ravens and continuing friendship in The Monarchs is a delight. The way Scarlett is characterised is mostly fun to read, a powerful and passionate witch who cares about her sister above nearly everything else. One of the biggest points of frustration with me in this book was actually something that frustrated me in The Ravens too. With Kappa Rho Nu’s future on their shoulders and their pasts still haunting them, will Scarlett and Vivi be able to save their sisterhood once again? What did I think? Unbeknownst to the Ravens, new rivals and ancient evils lurk on Westerly’s campus.

When Scarlett assigns Vivi the coveted role of social chair, Vivi is determined to live up to her Big’s expectations-even if that means dabbling in a new form of magic. For the first time ever, she’s got it all: her Kappa Rho Nu sisters and a sweet (and hot) boyfriend. Vivi Devereaux, a freshman, finally knows what it feels like to belong. But the powers of the presidency have their own pitfalls-and Scarlett has big shoes to fill. After the disaster that killed the sorority’s last president, Scarlett is determined that no sister will fall under the sway of wicked magic ever again. Scarlett Winter, a legacy Raven, has finally gotten what she’s always wanted: the Kappa Rho Nu presidency. After destroying an ancient talisman and barely saving their sorority in the process, they’ll go to any lengths to keep their secret as Westerly’s most powerful coven of witches. The sorority girls at Kappa Rho Nu-the Ravens-are determined to restore balance to the world.
