This was a lot more enjoyable than the title gives (random I know but the title turned me off for so long). I liked the premise of the world and the mystery of the parental figures. I figured out most things before the main characters did but it was still fun to read

This was such an unexpected gem. Came for the magical library, stayed for the characters and plot twists.

It was an entertaining read, I liked the overall plot and the writing was fairly good. I wasn’t super invested in the characters, except Nicholas who found funny and confident in a self-deprecating way. The other characters weren’t bad, just not developed to their full potential. Specially Joanna and Collins, who were supporting characters disguising as contributing main characters. I appreciate I didn’t have to eye roll their “love story” because it was left in the start of an attraction and potential of more. This was a comfy thriller that I wouldn’t mind readings a follow up story, but it’s perfectly fine as a standalone.

While this book took a moment to grab me, buy the end of the first third, I was hooked. I was rooting for the main characters but honestly wasn't sure how it would play out. Loved the concept and really hoping for a sequel.

Enjoyable premise, could be quite graphic at times. Would have liked to see a little more with regards to the magic system.
