Ghostly footsteps, haunted mirrors, stolen treasures…
Welcome to Rosebud Academy.

Up until a few weeks ago, eighteen-year-old Lissa Anderson drank, smoked, and partied hard.

She was trying to forget a tragedy.

But now that she’s seen the error of her ways, she’s determined to be the straightest arrow at Rosebud, an elite summer academy for classical musicians.

A spooky old dormitory, overprivileged students, and hours at the piano make the program into everything Lissa expected. What she didn’t expect is her quickly-budding romance with a cellist, the series of thefts related to scary stories, or the ghost determined to get Lissa’s attention. Could Lissa’s rebellious past help her unlock the future?

June’s Blood is the first story in the Rosebud Academy series. The main story problem (thefts at the academy) is resolved in this book; however, there are more mysteries that build upon this one, leading to the next book in the series. If you like paranormal mysteries and haunted academies, you’ll devour this spooky, gothic trilogy.

Explore these ghost-filled halls by starting the Rosebud Academy today!

Juliet grew up in northern California, where she spent her free time staring at spooky lakes and making up stories about the old buildings surrounding them. Years later, she still lives in California and she still makes up spooky stories…about lakes and the old buildings surrounding them. Like April in April’s Ghosts, she’s terrified of spiders and she’s obsessed with Hamilton. Like Lissa in June's Blood, she plays the piano...but not very well.

5.0 out of 5 stars Haunting mystery a bit of young love and beautiful music.

Received an ARC for an honest review. I read book one but there seems to be a prequel to set the scene, which I would like to read but it was not necessary to understand what's going on. Lizza is on a scholarship to a prestigious Summer session music school to hone her piano skills in honor of a beloved deceased lifelong girlfriend. The academy is held in an old and previous abandoned private school which has been vacant for over sixty years. There are mysterious "footsteps" heard in the first floor South wing and a mirror that seems to want to interact with Lizza. Several students have valued items gone missing with a vial of blood left in its place, kind of creepy. Who or what is doing this? Plus a student was being blamed for taking the items and then leaves a suiside note on his computer and has gone missing. Is he ok or will his body turn up? Guess we have to read more of this story to find out.
This story is good and makes the reader want to figure out what is happening and what will happen to these young students. I'm looking forward to reading more of Juliet Vane's books. Mysterious but no gorge.

4.0 out of 5 stars Predominantly teen dating drama and piano mastery

I love Juliet Vane’s fantasy stories. I love the intricate, detailed, immersive worlds that she creates. I love that her stories are full of myths and legends, building the history of her wonderful worlds and fueling the imagination. Here the scary stories serve to create an eerie atmosphere. But beyond the atmosphere, the footsteps, the creepy mirror that only made maybe 3 appearances, and the couple of items that went missing, that was the extent to the eerie bits in the book. The large majority of the book is spent on her teenage dramas, dating, jealousy of other girls, various people flirting with her, her insecurities of not being worthy of being there (which I don’t really get since that was her on the audition tape and she has been playing piano all her life), and all the hours spent on the piano, practicing, classes, and the lengthy discussions on musicians and playing and styles of playing, etc. Considering I’ve never played the piano, nor have I studied it, all the piano stuff just bored me. Might as well have been speaking Greek (though I really wanted to unravel the mystery of Penny Valentino the piano teacher who seemed like she was totally going bonkers. Never did though. I’m shocked no one recorded any of her classes and played it for the head mistress. I totally would have). And I was bored with the petty relationship dramas. Nothing felt any deeper than teenage dating. So, in all, this book didn’t sell me on continuing with the series.

The author did a pretty good job of bringing the characters to life. He/she used the right language so as any one could enjoy it without a lot of foul language or sexual inuindoes ...... safe for young readers to enjoy.

5.0 out of 5 stars Rosebud Academy is not boring.

Reading this is like eavesdropping on a person's life. There are personal challenges, friendships made, scarey stories heard, items stolen, accusations made, and a bit of romance tossed into Lissa's life. Not bad for just the first few weeks of summer music academy. What else can happen?

3.0 out of 5 stars Well-written, but not very spooky
Reviewed in the United States on July 14, 2019

Pluses: The writing was good, no editing errors or typos.
The plot was engaging and the pace nice and fast.
The setting was eerie: a spooky old Victorian manor house turned music academy.
Minuses: The characters were likable, but undeveloped.
The ghost stories, while good, were just padding. The book couldn't really be called a ghost story. I only gave it three stars because I was disappointed. I wanted more ghost, less teenage love drama.
But for those who want that type of book, I do recommend it.

I know nothing about music except what i like. A school of adult students who have come together to learn more. Throw in a possible romance, old rivalries, a thief and a ghost. What more could you want!

This is a book that I couldn't put down and I had no idea who the thief was. So many twists and turns just kept me guessing. So looking forward to the rest of the series.
