V.E. Schwab does such amazing world-building, as well as character-building.  We get such a detailed account of the four Londons and the difference in magic between them.

I immediately loved the banter between Kell and Lila and can’t wait to see more.  I already love these characters so much, I know it’s going to be a crazy ride.
