This is a great concept, but T.S. desperately needs a new editor. The lack of correct punctuation is distracting and the characters need to find their voices and tones. The inconsistencies in speech patterns and similar-sounding voices make it hard to distinguish which character is talking, if they're not identified. Also, too many all-powerful characters gets boring quick, so I hope not everyone joining the team has unheard of strength in their respective magic. Again, great concept but needs some work.

I thought I might like this book, based on the synopsis, but it absolutely blew me away. It was on my list for a while but I finally got on to actually read it. And I loved it. This book has it all. I loved the characters, the story is interesting and entertaining and I really liked the setting. I can’t wait to read the next book.

3.5 stars. I remain somewhat ambivalent about this series, but the second half of this book has me more optimistic than I was before. I found the first part of the book underwhelming. While Conjuring Quantico is set a year later, if I recall correctly, the events of [b:Born a Witch...Drafted by the FBI!|56506508|Born a Witch...Drafted by the FBI! (The Federal Witch, #0)|T.S. Paul|https://i.gr-assets.com/images/S/compressed.photo.goodreads.com/books/1609532034l/56506508._SY75_.jpg|52577154] are referenced often in the first half of the book, and that half of the book feels like much of the same. But once Agatha is pulled from the academy and assigned to a case, I found it more interesting.
How big a turnaround was it? At about the halfway point, I was expecting to finish this book but give up on the series. By the end, there was no doubt in my mind that I would seek out book 2. The second half of the book is a solid 4 stars or better. I hope that keeps up in the next book, now that the ball is rolling.
