If you loved how Tory and Darcy are thrown into Zodiac Academy’s lethal "lessons"—from elemental trials to the Heirs turning every corridor into a gauntlet—then El’s fight to survive the Scholomance will hit the spot. In A Deadly Education, classrooms spawn monsters, the cafeteria can kill you, and every spell has a cost. Like the Vegas learning to weaponize their nascent powers under constant threat, El must outthink a school designed to eat its students alive.

Drawn to the crackling, love–hate tension between the Vega twins and ruthless Heirs like Darius and Caleb? In Shatter Me, Juliette’s lethal touch makes her both weapon and target, and her volatile chemistry with the enigmatic, controlling Warner delivers that same intoxicating push–pull. As with the heirs’ obsession-fueled pranks and power plays, every charged glance and betrayal here doubles as foreplay and a test of loyalty.

If the savage hazing, shadow creatures, and bone-deep stakes in The Awakening kept you hooked, The Poppy War amplifies that darkness. Rin claws her way into Sinegard, where training is vicious and instructors break students to forge weapons—much like how the Heirs push the Vegas past their limits. When war erupts, classroom lessons turn lethal, and the choices around forbidden power echo the series’ darkest magic.

If switching between Tory and Darcy’s voices—and glimpsing how different power players scheme at Zodiac Academy—was your jam, The Atlas Six delivers a feast. You’ll live inside the heads of Libby, Nico, Reina, Parisa, Callum, and Tristan as they vie for a place in a secret society where only five will advance. Like the Heirs’ mind games and the Vegas’ defiance, every alliance is a gamble and every chapter shifts your loyalties.

Hooked by the Heirs’ dominance at Zodiac Academy—the dragon prince Darius, vampire Caleb, siren Max, and werewolf Seth—and how titles and bloodlines rule everything? Red Queen throws you into a Silver court where noble houses flaunt elemental powers and politics can kill. As Mare navigates princes Cal and Maven and a rigged social ladder, you’ll get the same adrenaline of scheming, status tests, and power plays that the Vegas face from day one.
