I love reading about witches and ghost. This is the second book in this series. I have not read the first one, but it took nothing away from the story. I didn't feel like I was missing anything. Definitely can be read as a stand alone. Everything flowed throughout the story. Leralynn is a strong character and the way it was written, you can see how she felt weak in the beginning and then grew in confidence with herself and her magic. Great read.
Jumps right into the action. Quick read. While reading it felt like there was some details that were left out that could've really made the book. Can be read by itself doesn't need the first book to understand what was going on.
Bloomed by Mary Dean is an awesome story that I have read. This is book number two in this awesome series that I have loved reading very much. I can not wait to see what she will write next. I highly recommend this story to everyone who loves reading about fantasy and paranormal romance.

This book is a great paranormal romance read...which I love. It has a great story line that kept me intrigued the entire time. I only wish it had been longer. When I finished I was left wanting more. I guess thats a good thing. Hoping for a sequel!!!!
I would normally not read this genre but I enjoyed Bloom very much. There’s suspense mixed with a lovely love story and great characters. A great book all round.
This is a great read in true academy style. Leralynn and Cade are cute characters. There is a ton of teenage angst and drama with mean kids, and parents... Lots of suspense with the whole wicked witch angle. I plunged into this book and only came up for air once I'd finished, can't wait for more.
This book is not at all like the books I normally read. Despite that, I thoroughly enjoyed it. It has action, suspense and a sweet love story. The characters and world building are great and the story pulls you in and keeps you interested.

I really enjoyed this book and reading about the powers that Larilyn, and Cade had. This book did keep me captivated the whole time and I started reading it on my lunch break and finished before I left work.
Leralynn and Cade save The Awakening Academy from Glinnda the bad witch. They do have help from all of their friends and a few teachers. This is a great read and all will enjoy it!
