3.0

I didn't find this book as enjoyable as the first book and I certainly was less invested in the story. I also cannot wrap my head around the curses and the school's hierarchy of sorcerers and I think this has also put me off a little bit. 

I have decided to stop reading the series from here. I can absolutely see why this is appealing to read but perhaps just not for me.
