The magic, world-building, mystery solving, timeline jumping, and the writing style kept me curious and intrigued. The chapters are told from Jamison and Luxe’s perspective, and they unfold both character’s motives, as well as how they perceive each other and the people around them. The plot was predictable, but it made the story easy to follow. I would’ve rated this book higher, but because the main characters don’t suffer consequences for any of their actions, I needed to lower the rating. Mainly the last four chapters and the epilogue left me feeling frustrated. I’d still recommend the book, just leave you with a promise to not be surprised at the plot and the ending.

Solid 3.5 rounded up to a 4. I really did enjoy it and would recommend. I truly enjoyed the characters and the magical families that each had their own power. It was really cool.
