A fascinating introduction to a new, darkly intriguing magical world. El is one of the most interesting leads I've read in a while, and her prickly exterior combined with her strong will and dedication to her friends is so well-written. Novik's worldbuilding is captivating, if dense at moments, but overall excellently
done.

3.5

Takes 2/3rds of the book to get to any real story or action. Too much detail-building. Maps of the school and cross-sections are at the end of the book. Should've been at the beginning for better understanding of the layout. Strong female protagonist.
