first off the ending... the gasp I gusped!! Juno really just went and killed off my favourite character


I loved so much about this, the world-building is great (I love reading different approaches to witches in books) and the entire book is also a fuck you to terfs which is always excellent. 

I found the first 150 pages quite slow, the book started a couple of chapters too early imo and it took a while for the plot to kick off. Possibly too many POVs as I spent a long while just trying to remind myself who was who. 

The characters did feel slightly one-dimensional at times, particularly Elle, but I still loved many of them. I would love to learn more about Diaspora too. 

The final 150 pages were excellent, I sped through them so fast. I really enjoyed the plot development and can't wait to read the next one. Glad I already have it!!

I love the plot of this book and the system of magic. I adored the cast of characters and their diversity, and their common trait of magic. I did not expect the very end at all and look forward to the next book!
