I have zero desire to pick this back up... The writing is decent but Jaya and Grey have no chemistry and Grey has the personality of a rock.

Unfortunately, I'm not enjoying this as much as I thought I would which sucks because I was really looking forward to reading this. I'm just not vibing with the writing style and the dialogue is weird. The characters over-share A LOT and say the most random things. Maybe I'm just not understanding the jokes? Also, the magic is not explained well and it's kind of confusing.

i only read the first 2 chapters of this book but after learning that it is satire and requires you to suspend your disbelief (which is something that i am not good at!) i think i'm going to pass
