completely not for everyone, but the premise of this one really is one for me.

Early DNF at page 40. I don't mind a meandering story (how this one starts) or a lighter tone. But the juvenile protagonists, already abrupt plot twists, and inconsistent prose that could fit into a teen drama just as easily as a light fantasy novel is making me call this one.

The first 2/3s were great, I laughed a lot and was devouring the book, but then it took an odd twist that I felt didn't work well and it lost some of its charm for me. I am excited for more though!

It took me a little while to get into this book. I kept starting it up again, reading a few chapters, then putting it down for weeks at a time. But by the halfway point, I'd sort of figured out what the author was doing, and from then on I really enjoyed it. I think there's a lot of different ways someone could write this premise, and the way this turned out has just the right balance of silliness and sincerity.

The book is very interesting and easy to get into if you enjoy fantasy. However, a lot of things about the world it’s set in aren’t explained in depth so you have to just roll with it as things happens. It also switches perspectives to follow different people often which can be confusing at first but does add a lot  to the story.
