Outlaws (Royal Academy Rebels Book 2)
Jen Calonita
- Reading
- Read together or check in after the banishment and the plan to expose the headmistress. Use those moments to gauge how your reader responds to the stakes before deciding whether to continue independently.
- Themes
- Friendship and shared action: Devin acts with four best friends and seeks further allies for their plan. The premise makes collective action central, but does not show how the friendships or alliances are tested or resolved.
- Authority and speaking out: After accusing Headmistress Olivina of being in league with villains, the friends are expelled and banished; they plan to expose her. The conflict centres on challenging an authority figure, but the premise does not establish whether the accusation is proved or how the challenge is judged.
- Worth knowing
- Expulsion, banishment and the possibility of villainous rule create social and fantasy peril. Consider whether these threats feel exciting or unsettling to your reader.
