Valkyrie 101

This was an incredible start to a new series! Ylva is starting her journey at Afterlife Academy, the school for training afterlife assistants, in hopes to become a Valkyrie. Nothing is like she thought it would be- a wood elf is training to become a Valkyrie instead of a Reaper, she has a dragon for a roommate, classes are getting cancelled left and right, and the dusk wolf and her pups go missing. Human death is at an all time high and every student’s studies are accelerated even though most first years are unsure or not knowledgeable about what they’re being taught. I really enjoyed watching Ylva grow in this book from being prejudice to accepting of other elementals. Her relationship is a very slow burn and rocky with Ryoko and I hope to see things turned around with more growth in the coming books. Pickles, Ryoko’s pet dust bunny, was completely original and I loved every scene that she was in! I can’t wait to see what happens next on Ylva’s journey and seeing the mystery unfold! *I received a free copy of this book via Booksprout and am voluntarily leaving a review.
