Publisher's Summary

Nowhere is safe when the gods are wicked.

Since the beginning of times, there has always been two sides: Norms and Idols. But never have the scales been so unbalanced as they are today.

I'm a Norm, which means I grew up in fear of the Idols and their godly powers. And now, I'm going to be surrounded by them, day and night. I've been offered a place at the prestigious Gifted Academy, an opportunity very few Norms get.

To survive, I must become invisible. But my hope to get through the academy unscathed goes down the drain when the most powerful boys in school set their eyes on me.

They hate me simply because I'm a Norm. If they knew who I truly am, they'd tear me apart limb by limb. But I'm done cowering away from Idols. It's time for the Norms to fight back, and it all starts with me.

Contains mature themes.

Male narrator lost me

The story is a great read, the female narrator is fantastic to listen to. The Male narrator sounds like he's doing a caricature of what a younger guy sounds like. It's as if he's a 40yr old mocking a teen's voice and it's pretty distracting.

LOVE

I absolutely loved this book beautifully written and the female narrator was superb. STRONG female lead 10/ 10. the male narrator didn't do great it he preformed all the male characters the same making it easy to confuse who was speaking and when he imitated the female character it was truly awful. if u can get past that the book is still by far one of my favourites found included in membership. LOVE LOVE LOVE

Read the book

the story itself was great however the male narrator did not do this story justice and in parts was just cringe worthy. the female narrator was amazing and kind of made up for any failings.

***A brilliant bully romance***

Wow being a norm is dangerous around powerful idols and fringes, norm usually cower in the presents of power idols but not Daisy she is a norm and do not fear them. This is a unique and refreshing spin on this story. Fast paced and have lots of angst and dramas. It took me a few chapters to get used to Alex Kydd's voice but I loved it in the end Madeleine Dauer is brilliant as Daisy and not so bad as the boys either.

GREAT READ

This is an awesome book. I loved it! I will be looking forward to reading the next book or, in my case, listening to it as I listened to the audiobook version of this book. The romance in this book is actually really cute to watch as the boys begin to feel things they never have before, and Daisy has to learn to trust those around her that aren't norms. This is definitely a book I don't regret reading and would definitely recommend to those who like this genre. I loved this book!

Terrible male actor.

The male actor was so hard to listen to! I think I’ll read the rest of the series instead.

Had to stop listening

Plot is too cringe to finish. The narrators did reasonably well considering the material but I just couldn't push past the writing

Dont blame the Male narrator

blame who agreed and signed off the selected & directed male voice performance. Audio books are expensive to purchase - I have no idea how this so "off"....sounds dumb &dumber surferdude.

This male narrator voice acts well in other formats- but us undone with this shish request to speak like this.

i had to "totally" "dude" stop
