The writing style was attempting to be funny, however I did not find it so. The plot relied on coincidences, didn’t love the story or the characters but I did like the concept.

I <3 Ned! This book was a lot of fun to read and I really enjoyed that aspect. The beginning was a little difficult for me to get through because it lacked a lot of context I would consider necessary, but it was still a good read overall. Pretty chaotic honestly but lots of fun!

I have no idea what I just read. There's no logic, and the plot is all over the place (if there even is one). The characters have no personality (only thinking about doing the deed with cecilia, ned), and the humor isn't all that great.. also, why did the houses have to fly? There was no logic there and did nog add anything to the story..  It made the story have a bit of a failed magic system in my opinion. It kind of irritated and confused me. I was thinking about reading the other two books in this series, but I'd rather spare myself the effort. It was hard getting to the end of this read. I had to push myself, which wasn't very good for the reading slump I was already finding myself in.
Don't recommend... sorry for anyone who did like it, this is my experience with this one..
