I guess you could say I’m on a fantasy/V.E. Schwab binge…

A Darker Shade of Magic re-ignited my love of magic, for worlds filled to the brim with it but hold a certain subtlety to it.

So much happens in this music, so many great storylines and plot lines, and so much that I wasn’t expecting (like Lila and pirates).

I’m curious to see what happens in the rest of the series, how it ties to this story, and if they dive deeper into to Black London👀

Kell, Rhy, you have my heart and soul. Please handle with care🤧
