Good but way too many pop culture references
I like the story and the characters so I will keep reading, but I found the number of pop culture references to be too much. It feels lazy at times. Instead of just described something, a reference to some other work is made when they could have just described it. The characters are fun, the story is solid but I hope that there are less references as it goes on. Sure, I get all the references, but I think as this book ages, there will be people who have no idea what those references are and it will take away from the story.

Sadly the frustration at the whiny and asshole behavior outweighed the amount of times I enjoyed myself because I laughed out loud.

The romance and the relationship arcs were all over the place here

This started a little slow, but it was definitely worth the wait! It feels like the authors read Annette Marie’s Three Mages and a Margarita, then said “that…but faster paced and reverse harem” somewhere between 1/3 and 1/2 half way through, it really takes off on its own path. But before then, I was experiencing some definite de ja vu. I’m really glad I kept with it though because I really enjoyed the story and the characters, which felt unique and interesting
Great story — highly recommend.

3 stars because I didn’t find Delta a likeable character at all. All she did was cry and whine for the whole book. A good concept but boring characters.
