Publisher Description
HALF-BLOOD is the unputdownable first book in the acclaimed Covenant series from #1 New York Times bestselling Jennifer L. Armentrout. This special paperback edition also includes the prequel novella DAIMON.
You will kill the ones you love. It is in your blood, in your fate.
Seventeen-year-old Alex and her mother have spent years on the run from the Covenant, a school where the pure descendants of gods hone their powers and half-mortal teens like Alex train to kill daimons for them. But when her mom is murdered by daimons and she has nobody else to turn to, Alex finds herself back at the Covenant, where she has two options: become a servant for the pures or work twice as hard as everyone else to catch up in her training.
The second option seems like an easy choice, but everything gets complicated when pure-blood Aiden volunteers to be her personal trainer. Because not only is Aiden gorgeous, but he also understands Alex in a way she's never experienced before. Unfortunately, relationships between pures and half-bloods are strictly forbidden.
But falling for Aiden isn't her biggest problem. As she learns the true reason her mother whisked her away from the Covenant and daimons close in on the school, she must fight to stay alive...even if it's her fault those around her are dropping dead.

Half-blood
I definitely see the VA comparison and they are very similar worlds. It’s been a very long time since I read those books though so I’m not sure how close.
Thinking about this book on its own merit… I enjoyed it. It was short and I’m sure part of a longer series so there was a lot of set up etc for what’s to come. I like the MC, Alex and the side characters are good too.
**SPOILER**
if she ends up with Seth I’m going to be furious
Single POV, low spice, 16+
Omg!
These books are some of the best I've read! The wit of the main character and the way it's written just catches your attention and makes it really enjoyable! Loved the storyline and characters and so sad I've now read them all!
LOVED
Okay this has a very similar base story / world structure as The Vampire Academy so if you loved that series you should love this! I personally could not put this book down, it was captivating, exciting, and had some really interesting characters. It set the scene for the rest of the series nicely without overdoing the world building like some fantasy novels do. Love it! I’m excited to read the next one
