A Darker Shade of Magic by V.E. Schwab

4.0

I really enjoyed this! I’ve had this one on my tbr for at least 3 years, if not longer and just never picked it up. Reading and LOVING Vicious earlier this year finally gave me the push I needed to finally pick this one up. And I was not disappointed!

I really loved the magic system in ADSOM—it’s a really unique take on parallel universes and I really enjoyed it. I also LOVE Lila Bard, 10/10 would die for her. I’m also kind of obsessed with Holland? Not sure if i’m supposed to be, but I am?

Anyways. I thought this was a really great start to a trilogy and I’m really excited to see where it goes next!
