The Academy discussion

Well, who thinks they know who Volto is?? Lets here it and anything else you wish to share or ask!!

I think Volto is that quiet boy she always sees around. The one who she read next to and the one who saw the picture. And works at the phone company.

I thought for a while Volto was Wil the quiet boy with the glasses but now I think maybe Wil is Kayli's brother, maybe.

Woah........ Maybe he is Volto and the quiet boy and when he was talking to Kaly about a girl it was Song he was talking about. And when he came home with that money it was from him being able to take of half of school to work at the phone place. Woah big connection

See I kind of have a feeling that Derrick , Karen and Wil have a connection somehow ... They seem to be around Sang a lot and I was reading the 5th book again and some of the stuff Volto said corresponded to stuff Derrick had told her previously and I find it weird how Karen happens to catch Sang about to pickpocket Mr Hendricks and then Volto just happens to have a version of Sang's phone in his pocket for her to steal ... And Wil seems to be around a lot more suddenly idk it all just seems too convenient for me .

I'm so glad I've found this page I've been dying to get my thoughts out but have never had anyone to talk about it too

Who's Kayli ?

Kayli is in another series of book that's a sort of spin off that also written by C.L. Stone.

In the scarab beetle series

Oh right , I keep meaning to read that book :-)

You should it's extreamly good and there are so many connections

Does it tell you what the Academy actually is so things the Ghost Bird series doesn't ?

Ya it sort of adds on

I'll have to read it . She writes so well

Ik. Another great series that I liked is that mara dyer series there's alit of mystery and crazy things

I've read the first one of that and never got around to the second one , it was really strange though I feel sorry for her I'd hate to have the power she had :S

Ya it's pretty crazy. The second book is even crazier

omg i never made that connection!!! maybe it is derrick because he knows about the academy and he warned sang not to join. ugh i cant wait for the next book to come out, i love this series!

Could volto be more than one person?

You know, I had that thought while reading the last book, it's possible.

Lisa-Marie wrote: "You know, I had that thought while reading the last book, it's possible."

It is so hard to narrow it down to one person and it would explain how Volto could be everywhere!

With the amount of information Volto has, its not impossible that he's more than one person.

I thought perhaps it was a test from the academy?

Sometimes it is Luke playing a trick. But in general i think it's Derrick. Will is the younger brother from tsbs and he has a crush on sang that's why he keeps on showing up everywhere.

I've been thinking that it's Wil, but now you really have me wondering about Derrick and Karen being in on it too.

I don't think that its Karen she seems too nice and they have said its a guy many times so...

Maybe it will be like pretty little liars with A it's someone we all know but won't know till the end

Lisa-Marie wrote: "Well, who thinks they know who Volto is?? Lets here it and anything else you wish to share or ask!!"

I keep coming back to thinking it's Derrick!
Just all the things that Volto has done seem to link up with Derrick's comments about the Academy guys he has made.
Also he would know Kota's house quite well, would know how to plant things in certain view.

He is quite athletic as well, which is part of why they'd wanted to recruit him originally. Maybe that's why he could be Volto! He didn't want to be accepted into the Academy and he thinks Sang shouldn't be apart of it either.

What do we think about Derrick and Marie?? Could Marie know something?

I agree with Elysha. I too think Volto is Derrick because of the reasons she mentioned.
But I have one more person on my suspect list - Will.
The guy how is very shy to talk to Sang and occasionally bumps in to her. I guess he have some crush on her and doesn't like the boys much therefore he is doing all this for Sang.

I have a lot of suspicions but I do hope both series end up tying together with the same villain. Two thoughts I have are:

One-Volto is Sang's dad or biological mom.
Two-It's one of the boys.

I think it's maybe will as well who happens to be the brother of Kayli .. If he is Volto i think it be a bid ironic and misguided but fun and said at the same time,,, but he is smart and i think he had a crush on Sang so we'll see

I would love to read a short story in the future with Sang, Kayli and Liley having a girls night of some sort haha that could be funn having the only Academy girls with multible partners having a relaxing time for them selfs and talking about the boys without feeling akward about it.. and having the boys disturbe them from time to time because they don't like having there woman out of side because they are so protective of them...

But i also hope the two teams will meet up more in the future maybe having a comen goal or becoming good friends..

I tought about derrick too at first cota's dog would reconise him and not bark.. he's was also someone of intrest to the academy but we haven't heart much of him for some time so i'm not sure.. and i also Tought op Will and i think he's Volto he's smart good with computers, has a crush on Sang and does meet with Mister Hendricks.. But if He is Volto than it's a bid ironic he's trying to save sang when his own sister is now hooking up with another group of hot Academy guys hehe..

Hello Samantha,

I totally agree with your comment that would be an awesome book with all of the girls and maybe even their children one day!

I haven't thought that far ahead,i was only thinking of the near future haha.. but that would be cool to, if they want children.. and those storylines would be fun and crazy and probably hard and difficult to write... different emotions, multiple partners, a baby, who is the father, does that matter haha

Yes, Maybe Will doesn't want her sister to involve in Academy business and feel same protectiveness towards Sang. But I am still betting on Derrick to be Volto because his previous involvement with academy boys and mysterious plans with Karen. But it all can be a plan of C L Stone to make us follow wrong guy or guys.

i would shoot my self If its one of the boys... It will break my heart and Sang's too. It can't be Sang's dad, he doesn't care about her that much.

Oh my goodness I agree!!!!!! That would be SO devastating if it was one of the boys. It would honestly spoil the series for me. It feels as though the series is built upon Sangs trust in the boys and the boys trust in each other.

Would feel so sinister and out of left field for Stone to make it one of the Academy guys.

I definitely want to know what the deal is with Karen! I think she could definitely be in on it with Derrick. Not in a malicious way but I think they believe something is negative about the Academy!

i agree with all of these predictions but if you have read the thief series by c.l stone then i think it may also be
1- Wil because of things in the thief series or
2- Blake who is a character in the other series because of his hesitation to allow kaylie near her group of academy guys.
also derrick was in my suspicion but i just don't see him as the type for he seems very OK with the guys when he plays basketball with them and i'm pretty sure he likes Marie sangs sister and volto i feel cares for sang in a different way then derrick does they just both give off different vibes i guess.

i don't want to believe it is one of the guys so right now none of them are suspicious for me.

Many Books Many Lives wrote: "Could volto be more than one person?"

it is possible but in my opinion it would just add to many villains in the book since there already dealing with mr.McCoy and in the thief series there is whoever is after kaylie and the Russians who she had to deal with so i think well making volto more then one person would make the story more interesting it would also become confusing.

I don't want Volto to be from Scarab Beetle because I haven't read that and would feel out of loop.
I think Volto is working with Derrick and Karen. And he is ex-Academy boy, who was not happy in Academy or something may happened to his family because of Academy so he want revenge. Then he would know everything about academy and how to handle computers and cars etc. right?? And only reason he is good Sang would be as simple as kindness. It can be right??

Does anyone else feel that the story is slowing down or being dragged out? I'm waiting to read the next instalment to see, but I just thought that no real advancements were made in the plot to keep my interest...well that was just me but was just wondering...?

Kaila , yes I totally feel that way I know she said that the books would be slower but reading the last book I felt myself not really caring cause much wasn't happening I even skipped pages which I never do

Kaila wrote: "Does anyone else feel that the story is slowing down or being dragged out? I'm waiting to read the next instalment to see, but I just thought that no real advancements were made in the plot to keep..."

yes, I agree, Its getting kinda boring. I even thought to stop reading the series at one point. But all these suspense is what keeping me going.

I agree with you. I really like the series but the last book was very slow and it dragged a lot, plus, I want more romance. There was quite a bit in the other books but in the last book, there wasn't much.

So i'm wondering who read book 10 and how they liked it ? And do you want to read more of Sang And Kaylie together in the future ?

With how soft Sang is and how strong Kaylie is, I could either see it being a match made in heaven or hell. They could butt constantly, Kayli could push Sang to another breakdown. Or she could be the push of strength that Sang needs.

I personally love books where something dramatic happens and the girls need saving (give me some suggestions!) so I loved book 10. Just waiting for all the guys to get their shit together and stop fighting. And for someone to let Sang have her own say in things.

Also, HER DAD!!!

I'm so curious for the next book - book 11 and what will happen with her dad now that he's back.. back again.
what do you think will happen or what do you want to happen ?

I have just read book 10 and I'm like "oh my god!!" First of all, the book 9 was a bit boring, and nothing much happened. But the last book, it seems all happened at once, and in the final chapters! God, I love books that leave me hangin', but come on! I'm restless now, only thinking about what will happen.

Other things I have to share about book 10:
- Was I the only one who thought she would never tell the guys she couldn't take showers? I mean, finally!

- I know Sang is tough on her own way, but finally I saw her breaking down. I mean, she's been through a lot, and if I were her, I'd be crying all over, all the time. It took time, but finally she showed her feelings and fears to the guys. I can't tell you how much it got to me when she broke down in the woods alone... I felt everything she was going through.

- The ending took me by surprise. Her dad is back?! C. L. Stone, it's so cruel to end a book like this!

SPOILER AHEAD from the last book released!

So who's excited about the upcoming release? I preordered as soon as I saw it on Amazon! I read the books over last year but I forgot a lot of the important detail aside from her dad returning.
